BACKGROUND:
Africa Regional Migration Program (ARMP) is a regional migration program financed by the United States of America (USA) Government and implemented by International Organization for Migration (IOM) in many countries in Africa. The objective of the ARMP is to build the capacity of governments to effectively adopt, manage, and sustain immigration systems, laws, policies, and practices that promote fair, orderly, humane, and legal forms of migration, while also trying to reduce migrant vulnerabilities. The ARMP has three pillars: (a) promoting sustainable, humane migration management; (b) encouraging value-added partnerships and burden sharing; and (c) preparing countries to respond to migration emergencies.
In Financial Year (FY) 2022, the ARMP prioritizes followings; (i) to effectively manage of their immigration systems, policies, and practices; (ii) develop, as appropriate, new forms of labor migration that allow migrants to work; (iii) build their capacities to provide protection to vulnerable people transiting their country and host country nationals residing abroad; (iv) discourage illegal forms of migration; (v) promote policies to address migration accelerated due to climate change events, and (vi) coordinate migration management efforts more effectively with neighboring countries and regional partners to address shared challenges.
