In December 2018, Indonesia adopted the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCM), committing to making migration work for all. As a country of origen, transit and destination for migrants, Indonesia is engaged to improve global migration governance to put migrants and their human rights at the center.

The joint programme supports the Government of Indonesia in strengthening its capacity for evidence-based, gender-responsive migration management at national and sub-national levels.

Through this programme, the UN supports the establishment of an inter-ministerial coordination mechanism of a National Action Plan for the implementation of its commitments under the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration.
