The National Migration Management Strategy in Iraq

Iraq's National Strategy for Migration Management, formulated in 2020, is a comprehensive framework designed to address migration issues in line with the Global Compact for Migration and Iraq's National Development Plan for 2030. The strategy aims to provide sustainable solutions for both internal and external displacement and migration. Key aspects of the strategy include Developing a national policy framework: This involves creating policies that ensure the rights of migrants and facilitate regular return for those whose asylum applications have been rejected. Improving migration data collection: The strategy highlights the need for a centralized system for migration data to better understand the distribution and status of migrants within and outside Iraq. Supporting the return of displaced individuals: The strategy includes programs and activities to facilitate the safe, voluntary, and dignified return of internally displaced persons (IDPs) to their areas of origin.
