Objective: The aim of the study is limited to the complex dynamics between permanence and migration, exploring the motivations behind these population movements in the light of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Theoretical Framework: This topic presents the most important concepts and theories on which the research is based. Of particular note is the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)], which provides a solid basis for understanding the context of the research.
Method: The decision to return or stay is intrinsically linked to professional, social and personal factors. Professional aspects include salary considerations, working conditions and opportunities for career advancement. In contexts where the labor market is highly competitive, it can become an element of repulsion for the immigrant. On the other hand, financial incentives from the country of origin can act as attractive factors, as evidenced by the Chinese government offering benefits for the return of qualified emigrants, making professional opportunities in the country more attractive. Social aspects refer to the immigrant's adaptation to the social, political and cultural context of the host country. Personal factors, such as family situation and friendship networks, are interlinked with social and cultural issues, influencing the decision to stay or migrate.
Results and Discussion: The topics studied revealed that migrating or staying is a complex choice, influenced by various motivations. Some are rooted in economic stability and employment conditions, or even with the influence of family seen as a crucial factor, molding educational and professional decisions, transmitting values and expectations. Cultural preservation and identity stand out as fundamental elements in the decision-making process.
Research Implications: The practical and theoretical implications of this research are discussed, covering factors such as geographical mobility, resistance to change, family influence, cultural preservation, identity and the socio-economic impacts of demographic change.
Originality/Value: The importance of this study arises from the scarcity of studies that have attempted to cover factors such as geographical mobility, resistance to change, family influence, cultural preservation, identity and the socio-economic impacts of demographic change.
