The primary objective was to create a platform for Member States and other regional and subregional entities to exchange and highlight the interaction between different thematic areas in migration management with a view to build a common and holistic understanding on migration management across the region.
Over the course of three (3) days, the participants engaged in comprehensive discussions on key migration management issues, including the global and regional context of migration, the development of efficient and sustainable migration policies, health and migration, border management, trafficking in persons, mobility dimensions of crisis, migration, environment and climate change, labour migration, social inclusion and integration and migration and development. The fruitful exchanges enabled government officials to identify areas of enhanced coordination between different ministries, agencies, and institutions at the national, regional and international levels.
By bringing together government and sub-regional organizations officials involved in different areas of migration and policy sectors, these initiatives enhance coordination, accountability and expand the scope of engagement in migration management, ultimately promoting more effective and sustainable responses to the challenges posed by migration in the region.
