Understanding Migration through the eyes of returnee migrants

Published On: November 10, 2018

The purpose of this survey was to gather data on returnee migrants, more specifically; on their perceptions and experience of the overall process of migration (from initial recruitment to return). We also gathered data on returnee migrants awareness of local government support services in general,and central governments migrant-specific services. This will allow us to provide the local government units with direct feedback from returnee migrants and for us to make recommendations for them to improve their service delivery for migrants. The questions related to both local and central government services are important in the ongoing decentralization phase, as we really want to push migration as an area within the remit of local government, not just of central government.
