Effective immigration and border management practices are critical to facilitating migrants' access to safe, orderly, and regular migration. Labour migration makes a substantial contribution to the economies of several Pacific Island countries, and international labour migration remains a key strategy to improve livelihoods for Pacific Islanders. This has, in turn, created a new and evolving regional labour mobility landscape to which participating Pacific countries will need to continually adjust.
Access to regular pathways is often dependent upon immigration and border management practices. In partnership with the Pacific Immigration Development Community (PIDC), this project therefore aims to contribute to facilitating effective immigration and border management practices to enable safe, orderly, and regular labour migration including through the identification of alternative safeguards in the Pacific region. To achieve this, a case study in the three countries will be conducted (Output 1.1) and recommendations for policy and practice made available (Output 1.2). Based on the findings from the case study, workshops will then be held in each country to strengthen capacities on identity management processes (Output 1.3).
