Policy Development on Migration Matters

Problem orientation:

• Increase in scapegoating of migrants;
  
• lack of a balanced public image of migrants;
  
• general mismatch between migration policies and societal reality.

UNESCO's objectives:

• Improve national and international policies in sending, transit, as well as receiving countries to handle the impact of migration on society.

Activities in this area:

• Best Practices Project
  
• Swiss-Kyrgyz Democracy Training Project
• Asia Pacific Migration Research Network (APMRN)
• Central and Eastern European Network on Migration Research (CEENOM)
