Beschreibung
The international migration of nurses is a global phenomenon
with severe repercussions for countries like Malawi, which
face a human resources for health crisis. This book traces
the biographies and future perspectives of young Malawian
nurses with a university degree, uncovering the biographic
importance and meanings of intentions and images of
migration in the new generation of nurses. It contributes
often-neglected biographical insights on nurse migration
from the Global South that can inform research and policy
development on the migration of nurses from Malawi and
beyond.
