The projects of Czech Development Cooperation financed by the Czech Ministry of Interior, Department of Asylum and Migration Policies

 IOM Prague has implemented the projects of Czech aid especially thanks to the funding from the Ministry of Interior, Department of Asylum and Migration Policies since 2001. The projects implemented by IOM Prague and the partner IOM missions are of twofold character.

 One part of the projects is characterized by its support to community and economic development, support to the socially weak population endangered by unemployment or vulnerable to migration, support to the returnees and support to their reintegration at the labor market back in the country of origin. The second part of the projects supports and strengthens migration management structures in the countries of development aid. The activities are implemented in the field of migration organizational structures, protection of the state borders, inspection of the travel documents, combating of irregular migration, migration data  collection and its analysis, the return policy of third country nationals and education to the border guards.

The ultimate objective of these activities has been support to the modern migration management in the target countries enabling legal migration opportunities, supporting sustainable returns and at the same time enhancing development aspects of migration for the benefit of the target countries.
