背景信息
The online Professional Course on Global Migration (PCGM) offers a comprehensive and pragmatic approach to addressing the challenges of migration governance and strengthening its relation to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCM). The course aims to provide learners with a critical understanding of human mobility as linked to international laws, human rights, and gender equality and the diverse impacts of migration on social, cultural, and economic dimensions. The course offers an overview of the complex environment and processes of global migration and how these are addressed by states, civil society, private sector, and migrants and their societies.
The course is a continuing education for professionals, particularly those at the forefront of migration and development work. A joint certificate from the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) and UP-CIFAL Philippines will be given upon completion of the course requirements.
