The GFMD Platform for Partnerships (PfP) is a tool to facilitate exchange and showcase projects, programs and policies that are undertaken by governments in the field of migration and development, and which are related to GFMD themes, debates and outcomes. The PfP is a three-pronged tool:
- for showcasing existing practices (M&D Practices)
- for fostering new projects and partnerships (M&D Calls for Action)
- for facilitating communication and exchange (M&D Networking)
Go to the PfP to view existing projects, programs, policies, partnerships and outstanding calls, or to submit your own practice or call.
Background
Since the creation of the GFMD in 2007, there have been continued calls during the annual GFMD meetings for online sharing of good practices using the GFMD website. At the initiative of the Mexican Chair and with the support of the current Swiss Chair the PfP has been created towards the end of 2010 to address this need and to foster new partnerships.
The PfP is a tool for supporting the GFMD process and activities. Documenting and showcasing certain good practices prior to thematic meetings informs and enriches these meetings. Also, in between meetings the PfP can serve to sustain attention for a certain theme, by showcasing practices and making calls for action for new projects and partnerships.
