ABSTRACT: Immigrants play an essential role in the economies
of many countries worldwide. This review of the literature examines and
synthesizes existing research on several factors that are related to the
contribution of immigrants to economic growth in a country. This literature
review also highlights the complex interplay of factors that impact immigrants’
ability to contribute to economic growth. They bring new skills, ideas,
innovations, and perspectives that contribute
to economic growth. However, the factors that lead to immigrants’
contributions to economic growth are complex and multifaceted. It suggests that
policies that support language learning, gender consideration, legal status, social integration, industry-specific training,
and cultural diversity can enhance the economic contributions of
immigrants to a country’s economy.
