Capacity Building in Labour Migration Management Program in the Southern African Development Community (SADC)

This project has improved statistics and data collection capacity at the national and regional levels, in order to provide the Southern African Development Community (SADC) and SADC Member States with a comprehensive understanding of the migration phenomenon within the region. This activity, as well as an assessment of national labour migration legislation, structure and mechanisms, has facilitated the development of a regional model for better co-ordination and harmonisation of policies among Southern African Governments in the field of labour migration. The programme has specifically strengthened the capacity of the SADC Directorate on Social and Human Development and Special Programmes in dealing with regional labour migration issues.
