    Labour migration policy and management: Training modules

    31 May 2006

    Workers in the Asian region are increasingly mobile, posing immense challenges and opportunities for the growth and development of countries of the whole region. If properly managed, with due respect for the rights of migrant workers, the cross-border movement of labour can contribute significantly to the continued dynamism of the regional economies. With these opportunities in mind, a Resolution on a rights-based approach to managing migration was adopted at the International Labour Conference in 2004. This manual presents the framework provided by the Resolution for discussing migration issues and identifying good practices. The training materials include 10 modules that cover the main topics in global and regional migration to further contribute to the strengthening of labour migration management in the subregion.
