How to include migration into the Project Document & Credit Proposal?

INSTRUMENT

Stakeholder Analysis

MIGRATION RELEVANT STAKEHOLDERS

  • Migrants and forcibly displaced persons of all ages and gender such as IDPs, refugees, climate and environmental migrants.
  • The Diaspora: What are the economic and social resources and skills of the Diaspora? Is the Diaspora willing to invest in their country of origin? If not, what are the main reasons for refraining from in-vestments (e.g. lacking trust vis-à-vis the government, no viable investment opportunities etc.)?
  • Institutions in charge of migration governance, development planning, sector policies, and national–local dialogue.
  • Sub-national governments, including states, regional authorities, municipalities, city authorities, as these authorities play a particularly important role in the (re)integration of migrants
  • Civil society, including trade unions, academic institutions (for data and evidence), faith-based organisations (for service provision to vulnerable migrants), and media (shaping public perceptions on migration).
  • Private sector including industry and employer associations: Employers play a critical role in promoting migrant (re)integration, migrant contributions to economic development, as well as resolving challenges related to migrant rights, such as working conditions for labour migrants.
  • International organisations and other International Cooperation agencies including the UN Network on Migration.
The migration related interests should be analysed for each stakeholder
  • Who are the spoilers or enablers of an engagement in migration?

Theory of Change (ToC) and Logical Framework Approach 

GUIDING QUESTIONS

  •  What  is  the  migration  context  in  which  the programme takes place? How are mi-grants affected by the intervention?
  • Are  migrants  among  the  target  population of the intervention? 
If yes:
  •  What is the change the intervention aims to  bring  to  migrants?  How  is  the  programme aiming to achieve this change? 
  • To what extent are migrants included in the results chain/Log-Frame of the programme at impact, outcome and output level?
  • Does the Log Frame include migration-related indicators (see also monitoring and reporting in section 3)?

Risk Analysis 

POTENTIAL MIGRATION RELATED RISKS

1. Migrants are unable to benefit from the intervention  
  • Migrants are «left behind», limiting the intervention’s impact.
  • Unequal treatment between migrants and citizens can negatively impact the community cohesion.
 Mitigation measures    
  • Amend programme to include migrants of all genders and ages.
  • Include all migration stakeholders in programme development and steering.
2. Intervention activities negatively affect migrants  
  •  Increased vulnerability of migrants.
  • The development effects of migration are constrained.  
Mitigation measures:  
  • Discuss problems with all concerned-stakeholders and develop mitigation measures. 
  • Consider separate targeted support for migrants.
3. Opposition to migrants’ inclusion by partner countries
  • Tensions between migrants and host communities. Community cohesion may be disrupted.
Mitigation measures:
  • Continue to advocate for migrant inclusion in dialogue with stakeholders.
  • Foster a migrant-inclusive multi-stake-holder dialogue.
4. Migration patterns change as a result of policy, conflict, environment, natural disaster
  • The project results cannot be achieved. 
  • New vulnerabilities emerge which need to be addressed.
  • Social/community cohesion can break down.
Mitigation measures: 
  • Amend the project through discussions with key stakeholders to address vulnerabilities/challenges arising from new migration patterns.
  • Regular monitoring of population movements.
