Malawi
This project aims to contribute to strengthening migration management in the context of climate change and natural hazards in Malawi in line with international migration law and standards.
To contribute towards the overall objective, the project will achieve the following outcome: Sectoral actors, policy makers and key actors in Malawi utilize gender sensitive MECC evidence in local planning, programming, or decision-making to address environment/climate challenges.
The project will ensure that the Government of Malawi and other relevant stakeholders have better access to i) gender-sensitive data specific to MECC and information about climate affected sectors/areas in Malawi; and ii) MECC related tools such as MECC indicators, toolkits and actions plans. It also aims to strengthen the skills and knowledge of relevant Government stakeholders on MECC topics, to better ensure that the MECC nexus is prioritized within national programmes and interventions.
By ensuring that MECC nexus is prioritized within the national programmes and interventions, the project seeks to enhance evidence-based policymaking and implementation, eventually leading to improved policy coherence and the better management of migration in the context of environmental degradation and adverse effects of climate change.
