Modelling the Conditions Affecting Population Migration Activity in the Eastern European Region: The Case of Ukraine

Summary/Abstract: This paper presents the authors’ algorithm for estimating the conditions affecting population migration activity in the Eastern European region (on the example of Ukraine), which includes selection of indicators, determination of indicators’ weights in a group, calculation of weighted multidimensional values by each group, determination of the weights of indicators’ groups in the integral index, estimation of the calculation reliability, construction of the integral index and its interpretation. The concept of the conditions affecting migration activity is regarded as a set of factors distributed in five groups (demographic stability and public health status, education coverage, labour market and employment conditions, standard of living, country’s economic development). Based on the results of estimating the conditions affecting population migration activity in Ukraine, the conclusions are drawn regarding the level of the country’s enabling migration conditions.
