Abstract

We propose an agent-based model to simulate internal migration of workers. The model is based on mathematical equations describing the socio-economic characteristics of the agents and their behaviors. The main assumption of the model is the objective of individuals to find decent (formal) employment.
The model simulates the migration of agents from a rural-type region of origin to a destination region with more important economic activities. The model consists of two main stages: before and after migration. In the first stage, potential migrants and migrants are determined. The second stage involves job search and demographic and socio-economic updates. The model is divided into several modules: (i) Initiation and migration, (ii) Job search module, and (iii) Module of economic and demographic transitions.
