Mexico has a strategic position in the Americas as one of the main origin countries of migrants (ranking second globally with approximately 11 million emigrants as of 2020) coupled with significant degrees of return migration. Furthermore, Mexico is one of the most transited countries, with hundreds of thousands of individuals from Central America, South America and the Caribbean entering the country each year, often with the aim of traveling northward toward the United States –approximately 310,000 migrants were registered in migration centers in 2021 alone (the highest numbers ever recorded). These migration dynamics add to broader dynamics of human mobility, including significant levels of travel and tourism, and pose significant challenges to the Government of Mexico’s ability to effectively implement integrated immigration and border management (IBM) processes such as humanitarian border management to counter migrant smuggling, border security, travellers’ identification, biometric data collection, screening and referral, etc. In light of this context, and at the request of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (SRE for its initials in Spanish), this project aims to enhance the Government of Mexico’s capacities to implement integrated IBM operations according to international standards and good practices. The project aims to achieve this objective through six main components: 1.1) the development of a comprehensive IBM diagnostic assessment that holistically reviews the country's IBM framework and provides recommendations; 1.2) the development of a detailed institutional roadmap for IBM capacity-development; 2.1) the development of gender-sensitive Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) to improve IBM processes; 3.1) the implementation of training programmes to sensitise IBM actors on the SOP manuals and the improvement of an IBM system; 3.2) the availability of easy-to-use materials for frontline federal IBM officials with information on IBM best practices, guidelines, and SOPs through the implementation of an internal communications campaign; and 3.3) a high-level technical exchange to share good practices between IBM officials in Mexico and IBM government counterparts from another country.
