This article examines Poland’s transformation from a historically emigration-oriented and ethnically homogenous country into a major European migration hub, focusing on Ukrainian refugees and migrant workers. It places this shift within Poland’s postwar demographic restructuring, post-socialist economic transformation, and evolving migration governance. Particular attention is given to Ukrainian migration before and after Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022, including labor participation, fiscal contributions, social integration, and anti-Ukrainian sentiment. Although Ukrainian migration creates challenges such as poverty risks, social tensions, and political polarization, it also offers opportunities to address labor shortages, population aging, and demographic decline. Poland demonstrates how geopolitical crises can accelerate migration trends and reshape national policy.
