The study aims to analyze the structural and individual factors that influence people's willingness and intentions to migrate, as well as their choice of destination country, using network analysis as the primary method. By adopting a network perspective—rather than relying solely on traditional statistical methods—the study will examine how structural and individual conditions, such as existing migrant networks in destination countries, shape migration intentions and decisions.

The study utilizes data from the Gallup World Poll to construct a dynamic network between origin and destination countries, mapping potential migration flows.
