1. Continued focus on the ‘employment’ and ‘protection’ objectives of migration: The overall objective of the migration initiatives is to achieve high numbers of migration abroad for Bangladeshi workers (the employment objective) while ensuring that they obtain Decent Work (the protection objective), and that returning workers are socially, economically and psychologically reintegrated (the reintegration objective). As per the discussions with stakeholders in Bangladesh, the reintegration objective is likely to secure donor funding in the near future. ILO will need to continue work on the former two objectives too, which include, but are not limited to, formalization, regulation, and capacity building of informal recruitment agents and building migrant workers’ organizations, strategizing safety and decent work for women migrants, completing the operationalization of the migration governance systems, and building a consensus towards ratification of ILO Conventions C97, C143, C189 and C190.
