Abstract

The paper investigates the effects of internal migration on green growth in Italian regions. We use employment in "sustainable" sectors to measure green growth, resorting to a novel measure based on the EU taxonomy for sustainable activities. Using data from 103 Italian regions (NUTS3) from 2008 to 2018, we find that highly skilled interregional migrants are positively related to green employment in their destinations. The effect is possibly due to return migrants to the Southern regions. Overall, the evidence emphasizes the importance of human capital migration in sustainable development.

回到你曾经属于的地方"？国内技术移民对意大利地区绿色增长的影响

本文研究了国内移民对意大利各地区绿色增长的影响。我们利用 "可持续 "部门的就业来衡量绿色增长，并采用了基于欧盟可持续活动分类法的新型衡量标准。利用 2008 年至 2018 年意大利 103 个大区（NUTS3）的数据，我们发现高技能跨地区移民与其目的地的绿色就业呈正相关。这种效应可能是由于回流到南部地区的移民造成的。总体而言，这些证据强调了人力资本迁移在可持续发展中的重要性。
