INTERNATIONAL ORGANISATIONS

INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR MIGRATION

International Organization for Migration (IOM) was established in 1951 and is
the leading intergovernmental organization in the field of migration. IOM is
part of the United Nations system. At IOM’s Special Council in June 2016, IOM
Member States endorsed the move to join the United Nations. IOM and the UN
signed the agreement.

The International Organization for Migration (IOM) currently counts 175 member
states. 8 states hold observer status, as do numerous international and
nongovernmental organizations. IOM has Geneva-based Headquarter. The
Organization is present in more than 100 countries and has over 180 Country
Offices and Sub-offices worldwide. 

The Organization is guided by the principles enshrined in the Charter of the
United Nations, including upholding human rights for all. The primary goal of
IOM is to facilitate the orderly and humane management of international
migration.

As the leading inter-governmental organization promoting humane and orderly
migration, IOM plays a key role to support the achievement of the 2030 Agenda
through both humanitarian assistance and sustainable development.

ARMENIA AND IOM

The Republic of Armenia joined IOM as a Member State in 1993. The IOM office in
Yerevan was opened the same year. IOM activities in the country are grounded on
a number of official documents signed with the Government of Armenia, including
the Cooperation Agreement on Privileges and Immunities (1994) and Memorandum of
Understanding (2001).

The Organization's objectives in Armenia are:

 * To assist Armenia in achieving border management practices that strike the
   right balance between control and facilitation and are consistent with best
   international standards.
 * To reduce and prevent the trafficking and smuggling of persons.
 * To enhance the self-sufficiency and integration of returnees, trafficked
   victims, refugees, internally displaced and low income persons.
 * To assist the Government in labour migration management.
 * To enhance the capacity of national NGOs to address migration issues.
 * To develop rural communities.

IOM provides assistance to the dignified return of Armenian citizens to Armenia.
The cooperation of Armenia with IOM is also aimed at institutional reforms which
in its turn are directed to the enhanced migration governance in the country.

The Government of Armenia is faithful to its commitment to achieve the GCM
Objectives (Global Compact on Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration). The Republic
of Armenia is also in the process of applying to join the Champion Countries
Initiative. In order to accelerate the progress on GCM, Armenia plans to embark
on the new Migration Strategy development, which will be based on the Migration
Management Conceptual Framework adopted in May 2021.
