A survey questionnaire with 29 items was used to collect the data from 100 purposefully selected respondents at Takhar University. The population of the study was undergraduate married female students who were majoring in different fields at Takhar University. 117 copies of questionnaires were administered to the respondents and only 100 useable ones were returned to the researchers. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS version 25.0) was used in analyzing the data.

The main aim of this paper is to investigate the factors which influence students when deciding to study abroad. The case study is based on Polish students studying in the British higher education system (UK HE) and the paper examines these students’ choices and their decision-making process when selecting their university studies. The literature review suggests that there are two types of factors influencing students’ decision- making process: push factors, which operate within the home country, and pull factors, meaning that students are attracted by the host country and encouraged to study there. Polish students constitute a significant group of EU students who study in the UK and yet there are very few studies on this particular group. The results from this qualitative research on Polish students studying in a selected British university indicate that, contrary to a number of other studies, pull factors could be more important in influencing Polish students’ decision-making process regarding studying abroad.

The objective of this article is to explain the challenges that occur in establishing customary villages. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study design. This study uses thematic analysis, which aims to identify patterns and determine themes. Data collected using interviews and documentation. The results of the study found that there were four challenges in making regional regulations for the establishment of customary villages: first, the drafting period for the determination of customary villages was carried out in a short period. Second, not prioritizing socialization. Third, local wisdom is considered less critical for the sub-district government. Fourth, there is no follow-up from the local government to establish local regulations. The results of this study have implications for the miscommunication of local governments in understanding the village law no. 6/2014. As a result, local governments have not fully rearticulated the village law regarding the establishment of customary villages.

In the context of the financial and social-economic crisis, Portugal has recently been the scene of massive outflow of professionals who seek/find employment alternatives in other countries. Also the young-adults most skilled are being affected by this lack of opportunities. Who they are and what moves this highly skilled population out of the country? Based on the outputs of an online inquiry applied to a wide network of these emigrants with higher education degree, we propose both the understanding of conditions – pull and push factors – as the knowledge of the characteristics, motivations, trajectories, strategies and ways of life of the emigrants` profile.
