• 60'000 potential migrant workers receive pre-employment orientations and 4'000 migrant workers undertake trainings for upskilling.
• 2'775 local government representatives trained to provide legal and information services.
• 800 left behind migrant family members receive remittance management training.

The project will operate in three districts from Phase 1 (Cumilla, Chattogram and Narshingdi) and expand to two new districts in Phase 2 (Cox's Bazaar and Chandpur).

Outcome 1: Men and women migrant workers have access to information and improved services which increase the benefits and minimise the risks of migration.

Outcome 2: Migrant workers, especially women migrant workers, have access to strengthened grievance/ complaint mechanisms.

Risultati principali attesi:  

Output 1.1: Aspiring men and women migrant workers access safe migration information to make informed decisions.

Output 1.2: System actors (like training centres and local community leaders) are supporting men and women migrant workers to access safe migration information and services and make informed decision.

Output 2.1: Migrant workers, especially women, access effective legal services to address their grievances.

Risultati fasi precedenti:  

• Pre-decision making orientation of migrant workers ensures that workers take more time to verify the visa and contract prior to departure so that they are not exploited.
• More than 35% women migrant workers who received information of skills development, undertook trainings prior to their departure.
• Managing remittances requires a holistic approach (including supply-side measures) to encourage savings/ investment options for families of migrant workers.
• Demand for legal services by migrant workers is very low, due to sub-standard provision of services and eroding trust in the legal system.
