Informed Migration – Boundless Opportunities
Secondary GCM Objectives
Dates
Type of practice
Summary
The website was created in 2010 under an EU-funded project jointly implemented by ILO and IOM. The initial concept of the site was to inform the wider public in Georgia about anti-trafficking projects implemented in the country, whereas from 2014 onwards this concept was broadened to target the promotion of safe migration practices. The primary beneficiaries are potential migrants in Georgia, Georgian migrants residing abroad and Georgian returned migrants. The secondary audience consists of the stakeholders of IOM’s EU-funded projects (including the donor, government entities and other stakeholders). The key activities consist of information provision and awareness-raising, with the ultimate purpose to contribute to upholding the dignity of migrants and provide the services in line with GCM objectives.
