Introduction
International Mobility has evolved over the years due to
globalization, proliferation of new information technologies as
well as the high demand for human talent everywhere in the world.
From Europe to Asia, Africa to North America, individuals have
traversed the globe to meet the everincreasing need for transfer of
knowledge and specialized skills in various parts of the world.
However, there is no gainsaying the fact that recent
developments, including the still raging COVID-19 pandemic that has
given rise to changes in working arrangements, have had certain
effects on International Mobility and the future of
expatriates.
In this publication, we will examine the evolution of
international mobility and how it has been impacted by recent
developments in the global space. We will also share an outlook for
the future and highlight the emerging trends in International
mobility which may have far-reaching implications on the future of
expatriates.
