FMPT project publishes eight Assessments of Labour Migration and Mobility Governance in the IGAD Region reports
27 February 2020
The ILO through its FMPT project published eight i.e. one regional and seven country study reports to better understand the migration and labour market dynamics in the IGAD region. These publications are part of the knowledge generation component of the FMPT project that aims to generate evidence based labour migration and mobility governance in the region. The regional report highlights major trends and findings on labour migration and mobility governance in the IGAD region informed by individual labour migration and mobility governance assessments of Djibouti, Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia, South Sudan, the Sudan, and Uganda. The country assessment reports follow the same structure and assessment exercise.
For these assessments an Analytical Framework was developed, which assesses policies, laws, and practices on labour migration and mobility. The Analytical Framework is structured around three pillars that are building blocks for enhancing labour migration in the IGAD region:
• Pillar I. Strengthening labour migration governance
• Pillar II. Advancing opportunities for regulated labour migration and decent work; and
• Pillar III. Enhancing the protection of migrant workers and their families.
These publications contributed to the development of the IGAD Free Movement of Persons Protocol, as well as to identifying the necessary capacity building required by Member States to implement the Protocol, once it is adopted.
The publications are now available online and hard copies of the reports will be distributed to project stockholders in IGAD Member States.
