DEVELOPMENT OF THE NATIONAL MIGRATION DATA STRATEGY AT INTERNATIONAL
ORGANIZATION FOR MIGRATION

Admin Expatriate Jobs March 14, 2024

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nature of the consultancy:

To undertake a baseline assessment of the migration data landscape in Zimbabwe
and develop the National Migration Data Strategy and Action Plan for Zimbabwe.

Project Context and Scope

Zimbabwe as a country of origin, transit, and destination for migrants, has
complex mixed-migration dynamics that pose both challenges and opportunities for
migration management. There is a need to strengthen instruments and systems to
collect comprehensively and efficiently, store, analyse and use migration data,
to inform policymaking on migration and propose strategic, effective, and
sustainable responses. Critical data gaps in Zimbabwe result from challenges
such as lack of capacity, limited coordination among, relevant stakeholders,
inadequate resources to focus on migration data and limited coverage of
migration data collection.

Migration data is pivotal in strengthening the evidence-base that policymakers,
practitioners, and the public need to understand and navigate the complex and
rapidly changing migration environment to produce meaningful and useful policies
that comprehensively address the migration trends in Zimbabwe. As such Zimbabwe
launched the National Migration Policy (NMP) in August 2023, which prioritises
data-driven policies under one of its pillars. Migration data is critical to
such policy formulation, and it was noted in the Migration Governance Indicators
Profile 2021[2] that there is a huge gap in the availability of disaggregated
data, which limited the scope of policy development. Additionally, the country
has sectoral policies that focus on labour migration (National Labour Migration
Policy, 2021), engagement with the diaspora (Zimbabwe Diaspora Policy 2016), and
anti-trafficking (Trafficking in Persons Act 2014). Zimbabwe has made
significant strides in producing these policies, regardless of the data gap.
However, there is a need to further improve migration governance by advancing
the implementation of the Global Compact for Migration (GCM) which states the
importance of data through GCM objective 1: collect and utilise disaggregated
data as a basis for evidence-based policies.



Reliable data allow for the inclusion of all migrants in policymaking.
Comprehensive, disaggregated data can help policymakers develop sound,
evidence-based policies and ensure they leave no migrants behind, especially the
most vulnerable ones. Additionally, migration data allow for highlighting
migrants’ contributions. Migrants fill essential jobs in their countries of
destination and have much to contribute to their countries of origin through the
transfer of remittances and knowledge, trade, and foreign direct investment.
Having the right data can support governments and communities in harnessing that
potential.

The significance of collecting disaggregated data is prioritized in Global
Compact on Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCM) objective one (1),
continental and regional frameworks, particularly the Southern Africa
Development Community (SADC) Regional Migration Policy Framework (RMPF), Labour
Migration Action Plan (LMAP) and the SADC Migration Data Harmonization Process
which aims to ensure data comparability across Member States, thereby enhancing
the capacity of relevant stakeholders to capitalize on migration’s development
potential. Furthermore, at the continental level, the Migration Policy Framework
for Africa and Revised Plan of Action underscores the importance of migration
data as one of the pillars for improved migration governance in Africa. The
Migration Policy Framework for Africa is not a legally binding framework but a
reference document that different Member States may adopt or customize in
accordance with their own priorities and resources.It is also aligned with other
sub-regional and global frameworks. Notably, Agenda 2030 underscores this
importance by emphasizing the “availability of timely, accessible, reliable,
disaggregated and comparable data as being key for effective migration
management. At the country level, the Zimbabwe National Development Strategy 1
(NDS1) aims to achieve a prosperous and empowered upper middle-income society by
2030, with job opportunities (both local and international) and a high quality
of life (With less income disparities). To achieve this aim, migration data
plays a critical role to well-informed policy formulation that support migrants’
rights and addresses the protection and wellbeing of migrants and would-be
migrants hence leaving no one behind.




As such, IOM is seeking the services of a technical expert to support
theMigration Statistics Technical Working Group (MSTWG) in undertaking a
baseline study on the current migration data landscape and developing a
migration data strategy, and an action plan on the implementation of the
strategy in consultation with the technical group.
