Migration Policy Practice
(Volume III, Number 1, February-March 2013)
This new issue of Migration Policy Practice reviews a range of policy areas,
including migration and development, migration and climate change, assisted
voluntary return and issues of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Haiti.
The first two articles, by Ambassador Eva Åkerman Börje and by Anna Knoll and
Niels Keijzer, discuss a number of current issues in migration and development
policy. Ambassador Eva Åkerman Börje, Chair of the Global Forum on Migration
and Development (GFMD), outlines Sweden's priorities and proposals for the
coming 18 months of the GFMD Chairmanship. Anna Knoll and Niels Keijzer discuss
the current deliberations on a possible post-2015 global development framework,
and explore the question of how migration could feature in such a framework.
The third article, by Daria Mokhnacheva, Sieun Lee and Dina Ionesco, provides
an overview of the role of migration policy in the context of climate change
negotiations under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change
(UNFCCC) framework for climate change adaptation.
It also examines developments at the eighteenth session of the Conference of
the Parties to the UNFCCC (COP 18), held in Doha in 2012, in relation to ‘loss
and damage' issues; and explains how the inclusion of migration matters in loss
and damage raises challenges to and creates opportunities for advancing
migration on the overall international climate change agenda.
The fourth article, by Liam Coakley, explores how asylum-seekers currently
registered in Ireland's ‘direct provision' system feel about the prospect of
assisted voluntary return to their country of origin. One of the article's
recommendations is that organizations active in the field of voluntary return
should invest more time in trying to understand how asylum-seekers remember and
imagine their ‘home'; how migrants construct allegiances while in their host
country; and the importance of community-based allegiances with fellow
migrants.
The last article, by Amy Rhoades and Leonard Doyle, discusses the outcomes of
Project 16 Neighbourhoods/6 Camps in Haiti. This project, which began in
October 2011 and is being implemented by IOM, the International Labour
Organization, the United Nations Office for Project Services and the United
Nations Development Programme, under the guidance of the Government of Haiti,
is a pilot scheme focused on giving rental subsidies to IDP families to
facilitate the voluntary emptying of six large tent camps in Port-au-Prince and
the return of IDPs to their 16 neighbourhoods of origin.
