The two-phased programme entitled “Better Regional Migration Management” (BRMM) focuses on strengthening the capacities of countries in the East and Horn of Africa to govern labour migration by using evidence-based policies, enhancing migrant workers’ qualifications and skills, and actively engaging the social partners. The programme covers 3 inter-related components of the intervention, namely:
