Abstract

Strengthening people-to-people ties is part of the Belt and Road Initiative’s (BRI) cooperation priorities and is to be realized, among others, through student and academic exchanges, research cooperation, joint vocational training, and tourism. Through national legislation and efforts in bilateral and multilateral cooperation on student, academic, and personnel mobility, China occupies a key role in shaping the way migration develops along the BRI. The findings suggest that new skilled migration legislation in China, geared towards foreigners with tertiary education, paired with BRI cooperation efforts and visa facilitation, is opening comparatively more opportunities for skilled nationals of BRI countries. BRI nationals are more often exempt from visas and have access to targeted talent attraction and retention programs. Nevertheless, up to now, these efforts have been mainly undertaken by the Chinese government, and skilled BRI nationals are not being encouraged to migrate to China under the bilateral employment agreements.
通过移民促进经济发展——通过“一带一路”倡议促进技术移民进入中国
加强人文交流是“一带一路”合作的重点,将通过学生和学术交流、研究合作、联合职业培训、旅游等方式实现。通过国家立法以及在学生、学术和人员流动方面的双边和多边合作,中国在塑造“一带一路”沿线移民发展方式方面发挥着关键作用。研究结果表明,中国针对受过高等教育的外国人的新技术移民立法,加上“一带一路”合作的努力和签证便利化,为“一带一路”国家的技术公民提供了相对更多的机会。“一带一路”国家往往可以免签,并有机会参与有针对性的人才吸引和留住项目。然而,到目前为止,这些努力主要是由中国政府承担的,根据双边就业协议,并不鼓励有技能的“一带一路”国民移民到中国。
