Applications are open for the Moving the Migration Policy Agenda Forward (MMPAF) Programme 2024. The Moving the Migration Policy Agenda Forward programme (MMPAF) is a capacity-building programme designed for government officials working in migration and/or asylum. It is also open to other practitioners and students interested in managing migration and asylum policies.
Programme Details
MMPAF is a series of tutor-led online courses, which use various teaching and evaluation methods, including lectures and interactive sessions with participants. Special attention is paid to hands-on practical exercises, notably the Problem Based Learning (PBL) method.
This MMPAF will offer the following four online courses:
- Diaspora Engagement
- Migration and Development
- Irregular Migration
- Migration Policy Coherence
Each course runs for one week, on a full-time basis. Each of the courses is deliberately broken down into smaller learning blocks, making the learning process both structured and digestible. To ensure the programme’s quality, there is a full-time commitment requirement of 40 hours per week from participants – including contact hours and self-preparation – with particular attention paid to interactive exercises and practical workshops.
Eligibility
- Be fluent in spoken and written English;
- Hold a minimum Bachelor’s university degree;
- Be sufficiently confident in computer skills to follow an education programme online;
- Work as government officials in the field of migration and/or asylum in the countries of the EU Southern Neighbourhood, Sub-Saharan Africa, Central Asia and Silk Route countries;
- Have full and written support from their employers stating that the applicant will not be expected to carry out their work duties for the duration of the MMPAF.
Application
The final deadline for application is June 29, 2024 at 23:59 hrs (CEST) via the online application portal. Applications submitted after this date will NOT be considered. Applications via email will not be accepted.
