Reintegration for Migrant Workers Project

The project builds on the successful partnership between ILO and SDC for past 12 years (2010-2022) progressed in two phases to strengthen policy and institutional frameworks to improve migration management, ensure safe migration and protection of migrants in the countries of destination and upon return. This project aims to support the Government of Bangladesh to establish an inclusive and accountable framework for reintegration with capable institutions, systems and schemes that can provide services for sustainable reintegration to returnee migrant workers. The project will focus on strengthen the policy frameworks, build the capacity of concerned ministries with a view to mainstreaming reintegration into their work and ensuring coordination through the use of shared tools. Work with the private sector and labour organisations will focus on increasing access to skills development and wage employment opportunities through new systems that connect returnee migrant workers with opportunities. The learning from this project will be packaged and shared to contribute to both national and regional understanding of good practices for reintegration.
