The project will support the Ministries of Health in Cambodia, the Philippines and Thailand to establish national level multi-sectoral migrant health coordination mechanisms, conduct national situational analyses and technical thematic research on migrant health, to support the development of national action plans to respond to new global level guidance on principles and priorities for addressing migrant health.
The project will ultimately facilitate and support Ministries of Health in the three targeted countries in the development of locally adapted, action oriented strategic and operational plans at the national level. The aim is to address migrant health in line with updated global policy guidance and recommendations, to enhance the ability of Member States to address the health of migrants from and within their respective countries and strengthen transnational coordination amongst and between the countries. In establishing national level multi-sectoral migrant health coordination mechanisms, the project will also serve to enhance coordination between key governmental and non-governmental actors, and identify strategic avenues for closer cooperation that can be maintained into the future.
