    The overall objective of the BRMM project is to strengthen the capacity of countries in East Africa and Horn of Africa to govern labour migration by using evidence-based policies, enhance migrant workers’ qualifications and skills, and actively engage the social partners. The BRMM Project Phase II will build on the work carried out by BRMM Project Phase I and cover 3 inter-related components of intervention, namely :

  • Labour migration policies and programmes that support productive migration in East Africa and Horn of Africa are evidence-based and gender sensitive.
  • Labour migration governance is more equitable and effective recognizing skills and facilitating social inclusion and decent work.
  • Labour migration governance is strengthened through being more inclusive of social partners.
  • The overall objective of the Free Movement of Persons & Transhumance (FMPT Phase II) is deepen regional integration in the IGAD region by supporting IGAD and its Member States in effectively implementing a regime of free movement of persons and transhumance in the region as well as by increasing regular labour migration and mobility opportunities within and outside the region.
