Portugal Loses 200,000 Qualified Youth In Decade

TSF Notícias Lisbon 16d16d Impact 5
Approximately 200,000 qualified young people have left Portugal over the last 10 years. Data from the Observatory for Immigration and Deloitte shows that between 2012 and 2021, roughly 194,000 immigrants in Portugal were degree holders. These individuals represent about 10.4% of the active population with higher education. Low domestic salaries drive this migration, with entry-level nurses in Portugal earning approximately €1,500 compared to roughly €3,000 in the United Kingdom. The trend also affects technology sectors including software engineering and computer programming.
