Gender-responsive policy and legislative frameworks are developed and implemented to promote safe migration, decent work and sustainable development for all women workers, including migrant workers
In recent years (as of 2018), the UN Women ROAP migration programme has made three intergovernmental mechanisms more gender-responsive (Colombo Process; Abu Dhabi Dialogue; and ASEAN Forum on Migrant Labour). The SN 2019-2021 will be used as a foundation to generate targeted change including mainstreaming gender into labour and migration policies in ASEAN and targeted AMS; gender-responsive migration governance in targeted countries in South Asia in line with the Global Compact for Migration (GCM) and SDGs.

Progress towards increasing legislation and support and services to ensure safety and security of women migrant workers throughout the labour migration journey were made as seen in the gender-specific recommendations in the ASEAN Forum on Migrant Labour (AFML) and the Colombo Process’ Thematic Area Working Group (TAWG) meetings. In the 15th AFML, a recommendation to include protection women migrant workers from forced labour, discrimination, violence and harassment in the development or review of bilateral labour migration agreements (BLA)/Memoranda of Understanding (MOU) was made and adopted by Member States and other stakeholders. For the Colombo Process, the Government of Bangladesh made a recommendation on building capacity on gender-responsive and rights-based in employment contracts leading to improved accountability of recruitment for labour migration in the meeting of the Thematic Area Working Group (TAWG) on foster ethical recruitment practices. These followed the efforts of UN Women and its CSO partners to integrate gender perspectives in labour migration governance.Disclaimer and notes
