Temporary labor mobility to various geographical and sectoral destinations improves rural incomes − Insights from Peru
Labor mobility is essential for structural transformation and economic growth. We investigate the heterogenous welfare effects of temporary labor mobility to different geographical and sectoral destinations in Peru, using nationwide panel-data (2017–2019) from 5,276 rural households. Estimated welfare gains are positive for labor mobility to rural, peri-urban and urban destinations, and decrease along the income distribution. Labor mobility to the non-farm food sector has lower welfare gains than mobility to agricultural or non-agrifood sectors. Our findings underline the importance of looking beyond rural–urban mobility in research and policies, as mobility to rural and agricultural destinations improves rural welfare.

World Development is a multi-disciplinary monthly journal of development studies. It seeks to explore ways of improving standards of living, and the human condition generally, by examining potential solutions to problems such as: poverty, unemployment, malnutrition, disease, lack of shelter, environmental degradation, inadequate scientific and technological resources, trade and payments imbalances, international debt, gender and ethnic discrimination, militarism and civil conflict, and lack of popular participation in economic and political life.
