“PREVENTION OF BRAIN MIGRATION
FROM OIC COUNTRIES”
Abstract
The migration of intellectual workers and skilled personnel from the less developed countries, particularly from the poor countries, to the more developed or advanced countries termed as Brain-Drain is a global phenomenon. However, it hurts more, particularly in the area of Science and Technology, the progress of poor and developing countries and is a very serious matter which such countries must attend on urgent basis.
Most countries of OIC belong to the less developed part of the world and therefore, OIC is confronted with this serious problem and needs constant attention to deal with.
In this report, the problem, as in world over, particularly for OIC countries is briefly discussed describing the reasons and the possible remedial measures. Some aspects of OIC countries are also discussed with useful measures taken to deal with this problem. Examples of ICTP (Trieste, Italy) and CERN (Geneva,
