Health Care Drain
Description
The migration of inhabitants of southern hemisphere countries (commonly called "poor countries") toward the North ("rich countries) deprives these nations of their doctors and nurses. This one-way transfusion can be seen in movements from Malawi to South Africa and then on to Europe; leaving a vacuum in the poorest countries. In Mali, various peripheral economic systems enable certain doctors to stay in the country and treat their compatriots, helped by international funding- one surprising instance of globalization revealing a human face.
