Addressing Drivers and Facilitating Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration in the Contexts of Disasters and Climate Change in the IGAD Region (MPTF Compact Migration)

This joint program seeks to minimize the adverse drivers and structural factors that compel people to leave their country of origin, while also facilitating safe, orderly and regular migration in the context of disasters, climate change and environmental degradation in the IGAD Region. The overall objective of this joint programme is to contribute to facilitating pathways for regular migration in the IGAD region and minimizing displacement risk in the context of climate change, environmental degradation and disasters in line with the vision and guiding principles of the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration. In particular, the joint programme aims to improve regional and national migration governance in the context of the adverse impacts of climate change and environmental degradation through different actions that each address the relevant objectives of the GCM and contribute to the implementation of other relevant international instruments, notably Target 10.7 under Sustainable Development Goal 10, the 2015 Paris Climate Change Agreement under the United Nation Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030. The project consists of four main results areas, which are interlinked: Pillar 1: Data and Knowledge; Pillar 2: National and Regional Policy Frameworks; Pillar 3: Disaster Displacement and Preparedness; and Pillar 4: Regular Migration Pathways. The joint programme is designed and implemented in close partnership between PUNOs: IOM, ILO, UNOPS (PDD), and UNHCR and their implementing partners IGAD and ICPAC. IOM discharges the function of being the convening UN Organization, coordinating the joint programme while IOM and ILO will be technical co-leads.
