10 Lee’s model of intervening obstacles Think back to week 2 (pushes and pulls for migration)… If a migrant is being pushed out of one place and pulled towards another, what could stop them from reaching their destination? - Explain the below model to a partner using UK & Australia as an example – what would push you from the UK, what would pull you towards Australia and what might prevent you from reaching Australia in the end? 3: To explore current trends in migration

11 To consider the factors affecting migration What might prevent someone migrating? In Lee’s model of migration, Intervening Obstacles are factors that have to be overcome in order for migration to take place. These could include: Social obstacles – family ties, illiteracy, lack of education Lack of information about the destination – eg. Where to stay, job opportunities… Economic obstacles – cost of setting up a new home/moving Intervening opportunities and places – migrants may move to intervening places, rather than their intended destination, due to obstacles such as costs, family pressure or due to new opportunities arising
