Impact of the criminalization of migration on the protection and enjoyment of human rights 2010, para. 55
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- The Special Rapporteur also praises the adoption of the 10-point plan of action by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in 2007. The plan is a tool to assist all stakeholders in migration management policies, especially in the context of mixed migratory flows where protection initiatives are particularly required. In his view, the 10 areas addressed in the plan should feature prominently in migration management initiatives and activities in countries of transit and destination. The areas are: cooperation among key partners; data collection and analysis; protection-sensitive entry systems; reception arrangements; mechanisms for profiling and referral; differentiated processes and procedures; solutions for refugees; addressing secondary movements; return arrangements for non-refugees and alternative migration options, and information strategy. The Special Rapporteur commends the impact of the plan, which inspired the development of protection initiatives in various regions and which were compiled in 2009 by UNHCHR. He welcomes the compilation as a knowledge-sharing tool that provides practical guidance for the implementation of the 10-point plan in action.
