Overview

Examines migration motives and trajectories in Indonesia, suggesting a life-course perspective.

Key Points

  • This research aims to explore the relationship between migration motives and lifetime migration trajectories in Indonesia.
  • Utilized longitudinal data from the Indonesian Family Life Survey.
  • Applied sequence analysis and multinomial logistic regression to map migration trajectories and motives.
  • Identified three main migration patterns: multi-directional trajectories, varying motives across life stages, and notable gender differences.
  • Work and housing-related motives were prevalent in adult, onward trajectories; education and marriage motives were more common in earlier life stages.
  • Men associated more with work-oriented migration, while women showed more affiliation-related movements, though both genders participated in educational and work migration.
