First Rome Dialogue on Jobs and Migration: The promise of labor market integration to promote orderly asylum seeking

The First Rome Dialogue on Jobs and Migration will focus on the Labour market integration of refugees and asylum seekers. It will discuss the pros and cons of different schemes, including some new hybrid alternatives that are being tested.

What

The Italian Center for International Development - ICID - together with the World Bank’s Rome Jobs and Labor Mobility Center have initiated the Rome Dialogues on Jobs and Migration. The Rome Dialogues are a platform for international knowledge exchange on the development of evidence-based, sustainable solutions to safe and orderly migration for all parties involved.

The First Rome Dialogue on Jobs and Migration will focus on the labour market integration of refugees and asylum seekers. The activities that asylum seekers engage in while waiting for their application to be processed vary widely across destination countries, and there is no common framework. At the same time, labor markets in destination countries are increasingly tight with many vacancies going unfilled, while working during the asylum application period would help build the human capital of the applicant and prepare them better to integrate in the labor market. The First Rome Dialogue will deepen our understanding of these issues and discuss various options with experts, practitioners, academics, and policymakers.
