Published By: National Institute of Advanced Studiies

The research paper has focused on migration networks in Anand (Gujarat), India. Migration agents are key figures in any migration industry who facilitate migration. Migration agents possess knowledge and overseas connections that potential migrants cannot acquire through their networks. Furthermore, agents can function as substitutes for persons who do not possess a migrant network, therefore placing them in a position to migrate.
