A strengthening program aimed at the management of migration flows
was summed up in Armenia on Friday.
Introducing the outcomes, the deputy chief of the State Migration
Service, Irina Davtyan said that awareness-raising events and
trainings had been organized as part of the initiative to prevent
illegal emigration and promote migrants' voluntary return to Armenia.
Speaking of the achievements, she pointed out to the revised
legislation and the launch of an online portal.
"There were both positive and negative developments. While launching
this program, we all had a lot of good expectations, but realized later
that it does not fully meet our objectives. Following the replacement
of the porgram manager, the project was reborn and yielded results,"
she said.
Davtyan noted that they have done a great deal of work to raise
people's awareness of illegal migration issues.
Within the frameworks of the program, twenty-seven business projects
were implemented, creating 110 jobs. The illegal migrants who returned
to Armenia benefited from lawyer's assistance and were offered jobs.
The program was launched in 2009 with the purpose of enhancing
Armenia's migration legislation and raising public awareness.
