PDF
AuthorSiobhan Lynham;Area Development Management (ADM)
AbstractIn 2005 the Dublin Employment Pact, Pobal and the Migrant Rights Centre Ireland discussed the possibility of assisting the development of integrated local strategies to meet the needs of migrant workers and their families in a local development context in recognition of the range of issues confronting migrant workers and their families, A joint initiative was agreed with two aims: 1. To facilitate and document the development of local strategies in relation to migrant workers and their families. 2 To identify practice lessons in local strategies with a view to ensuring their inclusion in post-2006 local development programmes. The report has four main sections: Section 1 presents the background and rationale for the initiative, and outlines its methodology. Section 2 provides an introduction to migration issues in Ireland, including the policy framework. Section 3 presents findings from the research, briefly analyses the needs of migrant workers and their families, and presents potential responses by Partnerships. Annex 1 presents a detailed analysis of the work undertaken in three Partnership areas.
