Innovations in Labour Migration Governance and Development Outcomes: Making Decent Work a Reality for Migrant Workers
The Government of Sweden and the ILO’s Labour Migration Branch co-hosted a High-level Breakfast Roundtable on Innovations in Labour Migration Governance and Development Outcomes: Making Decent Work a Reality for Migrant Workers, ahead of the United Nations General Assembly High-level Dialogue on International Migration and Development on 26 September, 2013.
The purpose of this side-event was to facilitate the sharing of innovative practices related to labour migration governance, social dialogue, and migrant workers as agents of change for development. The purpose of the High-level Dialogue (3-4 October) is to identify concrete measures to strengthen coherence and cooperation at all levels, with a view to enhancing the benefits of international migration for migrants and countries alike and its important links to development, while reducing its negative implications.
