 Chisinau, March 24, 2014 – Public Forum - Partnerships for an Inclusive and Prosperous Moldova: Women Matter! brought together women leaders, including migrant women to discuss with leaders of political parties and members of Parliament priorities for current and future development. They also made proposals regarding the participation of women from different social and age groups in politics at different levels. The basic factor that led Moldovan citizens to immigration is unemployment and low wages. National Bureau of Statistics gives the figure of 6.8 % of the unemployment rate among men and 4.3% among women - for 2012. Migrant women, both those who returned and those residing abroad contribute to the development of the country. A total of 60-80 % of women migrants send remittances in Moldova to support their families. Also, those who have returned have the experience and skills acquired abroad, financial resources and potential for investment in the national economy. There are visible return trends of migrant women, 39 percent, especially those in the age group of 45 and above. However, according to studies, only 30 % of women are willing to invest in the business. Read more. |

 More than one third of the returned migrants are unemployed or work in seasonal jobs in Moldova. Young returned migrants are the most vulnerable on the labour market says a new ILO study presented today. Chisinau, 19 March 2014 – The study “Return labour migration and the Socio-economic development of the Republic of Moldova” shows that returned migrants represent about 2,6 per cent of the total population of 15 64 years in Moldova and their socio-demographic profile is similar to other migrants’, with higher proportions of men and people from rural areas. The main reasons which determined the migrants to return home are mainly of personal nature: as the work incapacity, family reasons. Only 40 per cent of returned migrants have permanent occupation upon return. They are either employed, entrepreneurs or working on their family’s own land plots. More than 1/3 are unemployed or work on seasonal jobs. The most vulnerable categories are young returned migrants, representing the highest share among unemployed and economically inactive returnees. “Returned migrants encounter many challenges during their reintegration in the labour market. The most important challenges are unattractive salaries, lack of jobs in rural areas, age-based discrimination and nepotism.”, mentioned Mr Antonio Graziosi, Director of the ILO Decent Work Technical Support Team and Country Office for Central and Eastern Europe.

 The International Organization for Migration warns today that unless the international community takes decisive action to address the causes of irregular migration, more migrant lives will be lost at the hands of people smugglers and traffickers.
Observing International Migrants Day (18 December) the Organization’s Director General, William Lacy Swing noted that 2013 may have been the costliest year on record in terms of lives lost, for migrants seeking to cross international borders clandestinely. “We will never know the true total, as many migrants died anonymously in deserts, in oceans or in other accidents,” stated Ambassador Swing. "However, our figures show that at least 2,360 migrants died this year while chasing the dream of a new life. These people are desperate – not even a very real fear of death prevents them from making their journey.” Read more... |
