Population Dynamics

Aim 1 – Population dynamics and issues associated with mobility and sedentariness

The first component will aim to concurrently analyze the points of departure and arrival that defined migration routes, in order to develop different profiles of migrant and sedentary individuals in light of the economic, demographic and social conditions affecting the relevant communities and regional populations. These conditions include the local employment structure, the proportion of males among young adults of marriageable age, and the agricultural capacity of the land. This first component will encompass two lines of research.

• Axis 1.1 Socio-demographic profiles of the regional populations based on mobility and sedentariness
• Axis 1.2 Regional profiles of migrants within Quebec province's regional spaces through a combined analysis of places of departure and arrival
