Presentation
The aim of the study is to analyze the national dimension and dynamics of internal migration in the context of COVID-19 and to understand the economic and social conditions of migrants. Likewise, it aims to identify possible conflicts and impacts on the use of natural resources due to internal migration, and to propose sustainable and inclusive strategies for the creation of green jobs that minimize the conflicts and impacts identified. The study will review various sources of information to identify the main areas of internal migration throughout the country. For the socioeconomic analysis of the migrants, the migration hotspots with the highest number of displacements will be selected.
