Day 1: Brain Drain Crisis in Post-2021 Afghanistan_TeamA

The next solution to prevent brain drain is to create job opportunities by the government, which can have elite people with the government and use their ability and talent in the prosperous part of the society.

The economic and non-economic costs that were spent on the education and training of Afghanistan’s educated forces and these funds were taken out of Afghanistan for nothing. Costs that cannot even be measured in terms of statistics or economic value, because the majority of the elite forces that left Afghanistan were at a young age.

I appreciate your perspective on this. To further appreciate your stance, could you share how government-created job opportunities can effectively retain elite individuals within the home country? How can we ensure these opportunities align with their skills, interests and career aspirations?

I appreciate your perspective on the cost - both economic and non-economic - of the education and training of Afghanistan’s young forces who eventually left the country. It’s indeed a complex issue with deep implications. Let’s delve deeper into this.

Taking into consideration our previous discussions, can you share any potential measures or methods that could be taken to control this brain drain? What can potentially be done to regain or reinvest the value lost from this situation? I believe your thoughts on this could lead us to some interesting solutions.

Hello!

Thank you for discussing the topic. It’s layered, but I hope you’ll express any ideas or fixes you contemplate.

Weakening the scientific and specialized foundations of the country. The cultural and symbolic capital of a country is one of its most important capitals. This matter becomes more important when knowledge, expertise and skill become a commodity and its trading requires other capital. On the other hand, the growth and development of the country depends on the scientific-cultural capital. So, brain drain is considered one of the main factors of the country’s underdevelopment.

When the employees get hired to thier intrested job or expertise. It encouraging them to be loyel and active on thier job. We can motivate them by giving rewards and compensation based on thier completed task. By this way they gets intrested to work well to get the right compensation. Beacuse they feel thier works are valuable for thier employer.

What do you think is the solution to this challenge? It is impossible to continue like this and abandon the homeland to the enemies of enlightenment and wisdom.

I completely agree with you, Adnanbarai. Education for females in Afghanistan is, indeed, a critical issue that we need to address urgently. Could you please delve deeper into this matter? What solutions or ideas could be implemented to alleviate this situation? I understand this is a complex issue, but your perspective is valuable to this discussion.

Hello!

Thanks for diving into this. It’s challenging, but I’m eager to hear any solutions, opinions, or insights you might have.

Increasing challenges in management and administration (different levels of society); Efficient management and administration in different dimensions and levels of society with elite managers and agents of non-elite forces will not only cause the prosperity and efficiency of resources, but due to the lack of necessary expertise and knowledge, they will also cause the waste of resources and opportunities and cause a skewed performance in management structures. An experience that Afghanistan has witnessed many times.

I agree to you that Implementing a merit-based hiring system that matches individuals to jobs based on their expertise can effectively discourage brain drain and retain skilled professionals in their home country. By prioritizing qualifications over personal connections, this approach fosters a sense of motivation and purpose among specialists, preventing them from seeking opportunities abroad. In contrast, the previously prevalent practice of nepotism and favoritism in government employment eroded hope and disillusioned talented individuals, leading to a detrimental brain drain phenomenon.
