Existing evidence suggests that internal migration in LDCs, as in multilateral developing countries, is beneficial for development and social change, although the impact pathways are complex. This study explores the evidence on the measurement of internal migration, its levels, trends, causes and consequences. The article places internal rural-urban migration within broader frameworks of development and livelihoods, as a cause and effect. The patterns of migration from the countryside to the cities in Palestine are defined in terms of their causes and consequences.
