Description:

This report on South Africa is part of a global research project on the origin and destination countries for migration of health workers around the world. It contends that the health and social worker migration must be considered in the broader context of the human right to health and decent work, ethical migration and recruitment processes, global human resources for health and the health related Millennium Development Goals. The report points to how informed migration choices, and better investment in healthcare, can help retain valuable health workers, create high quality healthcare services and improve working conditions.
