The International Organization for Migration (IOM) in collaboration with the Government of Guyana recently released a report on improving the management of migrants including the use of electronic passports and collection of data across borders.
The report titled “Guyana Needs Assessment on Migration Governance” was recently launched at a virtual event with several government, private sector, and civil society stakeholders, an IOM release stated last week. The study, it informed, was implemented by the IOM under the Western Hemisphere Program (WHP) and funded by the US Department of State Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration. The event served as an introduction to IOM’s Needs Assessments on Migration Governance and presented the key findings and needs identified in the report, which was facilitated by IOM Research Officer, Briana Mawby, and Lead Research Consultant, Tiarra Simon.
