The Technical Cooperation Centre for Europe and Central Asia of the International Organization for Migration (TCC) Vienna, in cooperation with the IOM Migration Policy and Research Programme (MPRP) will develop and produce a comprehensive publication on the “General Model for the Collection, Application and Sharing of Migration Related Data – Data Sharing Mechanism”. The publication will contain an universal guidance of the “General Model”, which offers a flexible, proactive approach to migration data management and is based on the fact that the reality of migratory trends is established on timely, consistent and objective data existing already – although not necessarily shared – in a country.
The publication will serve as a tool in a continuous exchange of best practices of migration related issues worldwide and be a basis for countries/regions in the development of migration policy as well as the establishment of effective migration data management systems.
