To achieve that goal, IOM will focus on the following activities, acting at the request of or in agreement with Member States:… 7. To promote, facilitate and support regional and global debate and dialogue on migration, including through the International Dialogue on Migration, so as to advance understanding of the opportunities and challenges it presents, the identification and development of effective policies for addressing those challenges and to identify comprehensive approaches and measures for advancing international cooperation… (IOM Strategy, adopted by the IOM Council in 2007). IOM launched its International Dialogue on Migration (IDM) at the 50th anniversary session of the IOM Council in 2001. The IDM works through the IOM Council and regional dialogues and pursues cooperation and partnership with governments, UN and other international and regional organizations, non-governmental organizations and other migration stakeholders. The purpose of the IDM, consistent with the mandate in IOM’s constitution, is to provide a forum for Member States and Observers to identify and discuss major issues and challenges in the field of international migration, to contribute to a better understanding of migration and to strengthen cooperative mechanisms between governments and with other key stakeholders to comprehensively and effectively address migration issues. This initiative is designed ultimately to enhance the capacity of governments to ensure the orderly management of migration, promote the positive aspects of migration, and reduce irregular migration. Other policy domains such as labour, development, environment, trade and health, are increasingly relevant to migration management and therefore are bringing migration onto the international agendas of other sectoral fora. The IDM encourages exploration of the links between international migration and these other sectors. The IOM membership selects an annual theme to guide the IDM and also selects the topics of the IDM workshops. Each year the IDM and its accompanying activities have built upon the ideas 3 and perspectives brought out in previous sessions. The open, inclusive, informal and constructive dialogue that has developed, supported by targeted research and policy analysis, has indeed fostered a better understanding of contemporary migration issues. It has also facilitated the identification of effective practices and approaches through the sharing of practical experiences, perspectives and priorities. As important, the IDM has helped create a more open climate for migration policy debate and has served to build confidence between and among the various stakeholders in migration. This publication includes the materials of the two-day workshop on “Free Movement of Persons in Regional Integration Processes”, held in Geneva, Switzerland on 18 and 19 June 2007. This event was organized by IOM in collaboration with the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). IOM would like to thank UNCTAD and extend special thanks to the Governments of Italy and the United States for making this event possible. This publication was prepared under the overall supervision of Michele Klein Solomon, Director, MPR and Philippe Boncour, Head, IDM Division, MPR. Part I consists of the report of the workshop, which is based on the presentations and discussions. Special thanks for the preparation of Part I are owed to Melody Chen – the principal author – and to Claudia Natali, Nyaradzo Chari-Imbayago and Karoline Popp. Part II includes a list of useful definitions and a series of summary sheets on selected regional integration processes. Finally, Part III contains the workshop agenda and background paper.

Common Foreign Policy V. Border Integration and Development Policy The Presidents of Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezuela, and the Chairman of Peru's Ministerial Council, gathered in the city of Valencia, Venezuela on June 23 and 24, 2001 to meet in the Thirteenth Andean Presidential Council, underscored the impor- tance to the five Andean countries of holding this Council during the celebration of the 180th anniversary of the Battle of Carabobo, the event that consecrated Venezuela's inde- pendence, and provided the motivating force for the great Latin American independence campaign. In reaffirming their unswerving commitment to continue moving toward more advanced forms of integration in order to fulfill the historic vocation of their nations, the Presidents: 1. Noted with satisfaction that the Andean Community has continued to intensify its economic integration and strengthen its international presence; has broad- ened its Community agenda to encompass new spheres of action, like the polit- ical and social; and that the Andean business and labor sectors are becoming increasingly committed to the integration process.

  • Free Movement Under ECOWAS
    Promoting integration through mobility: Free movement under ECOWAS Paper prepared by: Aderanti Adepoju, Alistair Boulton and Mariah Levin. Disclaimer: Though UNHCR commissioned this paper and UNHCR offices in West Africa contributed to its preparation through the provision of relevant information on country legislation and fees charged for ECOWAS residence permits, the views represented in the paper are those of the authors. Similarly, while the authors wish to thank ECOWAS for its cooperation in the preparation of the paper, in particular Mr. N’Faly Sanoh, Principal Programme Officer for Immigration, the paper is not an ECOWAS document and does not purport to provide official ECOWAS policy. 1 Purpose of paper This paper examines the main elements and limitations of the ECOWAS free movement protocols, evaluates the degree of the protocols’ implementation in ECOWAS member states and identifies their utility to refugees from ECOWAS countries residing in other ECOWAS countries. It suggests that the protocols constitute a sound legal basis for member states to extend residence and work rights to refugees with ECOWAS citizenship residing in their territories who are willing to seek and carry out employment. It briefly describes current efforts to assist Sierra Leonean and Liberian refugees to achieve the legal aspects of local integration through utilization of ECOWAS residence entitlements in seven countries in West Africa. The paper concludes with a number of recommended next steps for further action by both UNHCR and ECOWAS. The ECOWAS Treaty Seeking to promote stability and development following their independence from colonial rule, countries in the West African sub-region determined to embrace a policy of regional economic and cultural integration.

  • Fostering Free Movement of Persons in West Africa: Achievements, Constraints, and Prospects for Intraregional Migration
    Fostering Free Movement of Persons in West Africa: Achievements, Constraints, and Prospects for Intraregional Migration Aderanti Adepoju* ABSTRACT Migration in West Africa is strongly influenced by poverty, depressed economies, and socio-political crises. The influx of migrants into the cities and irregular migrations across national borders in search of decent living conditions reflect a crisis of development. To understand the dynamics of these diverse migrations, we focus on causes and changing configurations of emerging migratory flows; autonomous female migration, trafficking in women and children; intraregional migration as alternatives to “illegal” migration to the North; progress and constraints in creating a borderless subregion and fostering intraregional migration. The abolition of the mandatory residency permit, introduction of Brown Card travel certificates, and the elimination of the ubiquitous border formalities are aimed at facilitating intraregional movements of persons. Progress was constrained by multiple cooperation groupings and memberships, conflicting objectives, inconsistent political support, growing national identity, depressed economies, and xenophobia against “foreigners”. We suggest that governments should align national employment laws with regional treaties, protect the rights of migrant workers, promote pro-poor employment strategies, adopt variable speed approach in implementing migration policies, and enforce migrants’ rights of residence and establishment. * Human Resources Development Centre, University of Lagos, Nigeria.
