Supporting Myanmar’s Migration Management in the context of National Reforms and Regional Transition

The objective of this project is to support the Government of Myanmar to improve its migration management capacity in the context of national reforms, as well as expand cooperation at bilateral and regional levels. The project will be implemented in close collaboration with the Ministry of Labour, Employment and Security (MOLES) as well as selected members of Myanmar’s inter-ministerial Overseas Employment Supervisory Committee.

Project outputs that will contribute towards this objective include providing assistance in developing effective and gender-sensitive policies and strategies, as well as supporting the enhancement of better partnership between and among the relevant governments of destination countries, public and private sectors institutions, and international organizations. New Migrant Resource Centers (MRC) in un-serviced priority areas will also be established in order to protect and promote the rights of male and female migrant workers throughout the migration process, and ensure that the recruitment process is both orderly and humane.
