In 2010, the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) Group of States and the European Union (EU) agreed on a Joint Declaration on Migration and Development that was endorsed by the ACP-EU Council in June 2010. In this declaration, the parties committed to strengthen and deepen cooperation in the area of migration, in particular based on three pillars:
To facilitate legal channels of migration, Kenya passed the Citizenship and immigration Act, 2011, the Employment Act, 2007 and the Labour Institutions Act. Regulations governing private recruitment agencies require recruitment agencies to charge from their principals a service fee to cover services rendered in the recruitment, documentation and placement of workers so that the migrant workers are not burdened with this cost.
Moldova has entered into visa-free agreements with the EU countries, Turkey, the Western Balkan states and a few Latin American countries. Learning from the experience of Australia, Moldova launched in August 2014 the e-visa system that gives access to citizens of other countries to travel easily to Moldova.
In 2011, Mexico passed a law on migration which does not criminalize irregular migrants in the country. The new law guarantees that foreigners and Mexican nationals will receive equal treatment under Mexican law and decriminalizes undocumented immigration, reducing it to an administrative infraction, punishable with a fine of up to 100 days' worth of minimum wage. Under this equality principle all immigrants, regardless of status, nationality, or ethnicity, are granted the right to education and healthcare and are entitled to due process.
The Seasonal Worker Program aims to contribute to Pacific islands’ and Timor-Leste’s economic development objectives while assisting Australian employers who cannot source local labour. Citizens of Kiribati, Nauru, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Timor Leste, Tonga, Tuvalu and Vanuatu are able to participate in the programme.
Australia’s immigration system has evolved to place emphasis on employer-sponsored, demand driven migration developed through broad consultations and programs with a wide range of stakeholders. A cornerstone of its migration program is labour market assessment (through the use of independent and accredited bodies with specialized knowledge of particular occupations), as well as consultations with the industry and the wider public through blogs, discussion papers and surveys.
The campaign starting at the beginning of 2014 until January 2015, conducted a legalization process of undocumented migrants as recommended by the National Human Rights Council (CNDH). Around 18,000 undocumented migrants who wished to stay in Morocco were regularized and received a residence permit thanks to this program.
Allows nationals from the countries in Mercosur such as Chile, Peru, Bolivia to be able to migrate, either temporarily or permanently, and to be more integrated regionally. While increasing cooperation between the states, this mechanism also means that all the members of Mercosur will be naturalized regardless of their migratory status.
The agreements that Ecuador has with Peru and Venezuela, for example, make it easier for citizens from all three countries to stay and work in neighboring countries.
The new Moroccan migration policy is based on humanitarian considerations and promotes integration and access to the healthcare system, education, housing, employment, and other services. It considers migration as an opportunity rather than a social, economic or political threat.
At the multilateral level, the Global Health Workforce Alliance (GHWA), is a partnership hosted and administered by the World Health Organization, provides a forum for governments, NGOs, international organizations, donors, academic institutions, professional associations and workers to search for solutions to the current "crisis" in the health workforce.
