Abstract

La migración venezolana a Colombia ha movilizado alrededor de 1,8 millones de venezolanos y colombianos retornados a Colombia. Mediante un panel de datos, empleando efectos fijos, estimamos la diferencia del aporte a la productividad de la población migrante con la no migrante para dos periodos, 2013-2019 y 2015-2019, considerando nivel educativo, departamento y sector. Durante 2015-2019 la población migrante con nivel educativo alto tendría mayores contribuciones a la productividad que la población no migrante con nivel educativo bajo. Existe un sesgo de autoselección dado que los migrantes buscaron ocuparse en departamentos con mayor productividad. Este sesgo se corrige con una variable instrumental que explota la variación regional de las redes de migrantes existentes en 2005 y el momento e intensidad de la crisis económica venezolana. Este análisis evidencia que la migración venezolana afecta positivamente la productividad laboral colombiana a corto plazo y sirve como insumo para estructurar políticas migratorias.
