English term

push/pull effects

English to French Social Sciences International Org/Dev/Coop effets du SIDA sur le potentiel humain
Migration is another challenge that can have a serious impact on a nation’s human capacity

In some cases, often when strong push effects are present, there will be a high level of migration, taking a deep toll on a country’s human resources.

In other cases, often when strong pull effects are in place, it is specific and often essential groups of professionals who decide to leave their native countries behind.

neutral Conor McAuley : Push: what makes people want to leave their countries of residence, pull: what attracts them to emigrate, in the country they may emigrate to // I kind of agree, but "répulsion" could be confused with things that might stop them going to a new country
