Case Study: Republic of North Macedonia Arta Xhelili PhD, Lecturer of Media and Interculural Communication, Mother Teresa University, North Macedonia Elisabeta Bajrami Ollogu PhD, Lecturer of Social Policy, Mother Teresa University, North Macedonia Rizvan Sulejmani PhD, Lecturer of Political Theory, Mother Teresa University, North Macedonia Murat Aliu PhD, Lecturer of Political Theory, Mother Teresa University, North Macedonia Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic seems to be under control and it might seem as we are about to get back to normal life or switch to the so-called post Covid era. However, even though the governments’ responses to the virus may be slowly withdrawn, their impact from geopolitics to healthcare to technology will live on. This infers that we cannot return to the world as it was before and we should expect a “post-COVID world” and a” New Normality”. Hence, it is of critical importance to deliberate the “new normal”, and prospects of the post- COVID world. In that regard, migration remains a first-hand phenomenon to be on focus of research. Among many other consequences, the COVID-19 crisis seems to have posed considerable risks in the fields of education, employment, mental health and disposable income for young people. Therefore, this research aims to shed light on the phenomenon of (e)migration by discussing the intentions and motives of undergraduate students and identifying the factors for potential emigration. Participants consisted of 525 undergraduate students enrolled in Albanian speaking public universities in North Macedonia. Some of the research objectives include: measure youth perceptions regarding (e)migration from the country towards other countries; analyze whether the Covid19 crisis has increased or decreased young people’s willingness to (e)migrate; explore whether the development of technology related with many professions, influences positively young people in terms of professional development, etc.
