Migration is a significant human phenomenon in which the people were moving across the globe in search of better living conditions. However, due to the violent political scenario between nations forced the displacement of millions of people for survival and currently, around 70.8 million people have been displaced across the world (UNHCR, 2019). It requires attention that even though there are various organisation's to support migrants, NGO's play a pivotal role in protecting humanitarian aspects of the migrants and their integration. About the NGO mechanisms, the significant measures are the lobbying and the mediatised political communication for effective policy changes. Therefore, it is significant to identify how NGO's influence on political communication and policy decision making using social media platforms and lobbying mechanism in the state of Florida in the United States. The article aims to identify the role of NGO on addressing the migrant crisis and upholding of sanctuary policy in Florida which facilitates migrant integration. Research methods include a qualitative interview with the Florida Immigrant Coalition and their social media discourse. The finding could be useful for effective immigrant integration and the significant policy measures needed for facilitating migrant integration.

Based on a systematic and comprehensive review of literature on emigration, we identify potential non-economic push factors that might drive Lithuanian citizens to emigrate. Based on a random sample nationwide survey conducted in spring 2019 with Lithuanian citizens living in Lithuania, two categories have emerged as most critical non-economic drivers to lead to higher intention to emigrate: quality of working life and confidence in the future. Further research can add necessary nuance to understanding these factors while also experimenting with possible policy and project interventions that can reduce intent to emigrate and/or encourage return migration. This research is implemented under the project "The importance of non-economic factors to the emigration of the Lithuanian population", funded by the Research Council of Lithuania under the Programme "Improvement of researchers' qualification by implementing world-class R&D projects" (Agreement No. 09.3.3-LMT-K-712-01-170). ; Pagrindinis straipsnio tikslas yra aptarti neekonominius emigracijos stūmos veiksnius, kurie daro įtaką gyventojų ketinimams emigruoti iš Lietuvos. Remiantis išsamia literatūros analize, straipsnyje apžvelgiami emigracijos stūmos ir traukos veiksniai bei jų klasifikacija. Ypatingas dėmesys skiriamas galimiems neekonominiams stūmos veiksniams, kurie paskatina Lietuvos gyventojus emigruoti. Atsižvelgiant į teorijoje išskiriamus emigraciją skatinančius veiksnius ir2019 m. birželio mėnesįatliktos reprezentatyvios Lietuvos gyventojų apklausos empirinius duomenis, išskiriamos dvi svarbiausios neekonominių veiksnių kategorijos, kurios paskatina emigruoti: darbo aplinkos kokybė ir saugumo jausmas dėl ateities. Tolimesni moksliniai tyrimai apie neekonominius emigracijos stūmos faktorius gali suteikti pridėtinės vertės siekiant gautus tyrimo rezultatus toliau pritaikyti politikos formavimo srityje bei sumažintigyventojų norąemigruoti ar paskatinti jų reemigraciją. Šis tyrimas vykdomas įgyvendinant projektą "Neekonominių veiksnių poveikis ...
