Migrant Money is Key to Development
12th November 2014
A newly published podcast from the World Bank focuses on the importance of remittance incomes for many poorer countries. The flow of remittance incomes from migrants living and working overseas in some cases accounts for more than 10% of a nation's annual gross domestic product. Remittance flows now outweigh the total value of international overseas aid. Click here for the podcast: http://www.worldbank.org/en/news/video/2014/11/05/...
