    Abstract:
    Rich countries, as well as a growing number of middle-income countries (which are
among the main sources of migrants), are facing demographic decline. As global competition
for workers and talents intensifies across the globe, in most low-income countries there will be
most likely a rapid population growth, which might put pressure on them to create more jobs
for young people. Underscoring the urgency of better management of migration, the authors
of the World Development Report 2023 propose an innovative approach to this issue inspired
by labour economics and international law based on the match and motive framework.
Arguing that governments should strengthen the matching of migrants' skills with demand in
destination societies, protecting refugees and adopting policies to reduce the movements of
distressed migrants, the Report represents a support tool for policy makers on migration and
refugees. At the same time, it provides inspiration to decision-makers by exploring new ways
of managing migration in accordance with the global geopolitical reality.

    Keywords:  migrants, refugees, match and motivate, migration policies, sustainable
development

    Resume  :
    Les pays riches, ainsi qu'un nombre grandissant de pays a revenu intermediaire
(qui comptent parmi les principales sources de migrants), sont confrontes a un declin
demographique. Alors que la concurrence mondiale pour les travailleurs et les talents
s'intensifie a travers le monde, dans la plupart des pays a faible revenu, il y aura tres
probablement une croissance demographique rapide, ce qui pourrait les inciter a creer plus
d'emplois pour les jeunes. Soulignant l'urgence d'une meilleure gestion des migrations, les
auteurs du Rapport sur le developpement dans le monde 2023 proposent une approche
innovante de cette question inspiree de l'6conomie du travail et du droit international basee sur
la matrice «appariement et motivation». Arguant que les gouvernements devraient renforcer
l'adequation des competences des migrants avec la demande dans les societes de destination,
proteger les refugies et adopter des politiques visant a reduire les mouvements de migrants
