comments:

COs of South Asia will be advocating with policy makers and donors to upscale access to quality migration services and social protection. E.g., in DWCPs of both Nepal and Bangladesh, one of the outputs is promoting access to gender friendly information and quality migration services for people seeking employment abroad. Through its DWCP, the COs will be supporting and reviewing the available migration services, policies, strengthening of MRCs etc with a particular attention on women who are seeking low skilled jobs abroad.

WIF staff and Programme Officers to explore possible funding opportunities (which are currently bleak) to upscale similar interventions in the source areas.

title:

3. Seek forms of funding to sustain the pro-choice orientation and guidance approach developed for South Asia. With the budget cuts made to the funding of orientation work in Nepal and India over the last two years, the opportunity to increase the scale of the work and generate a greater return of investment for WIF has been lost. Some additional funding has been generated in Nepal, with other projects expanding pre-decision orientation training and the district centre located migrant resource centres, but more is required if the work is to be sustained and expanded for the longer term, and also in India and Bangladesh, with further local and regional government support.
