CHALLENGES
The problem of deskilling of migrant workers especially among women is prevalent due to reluctance of migrant receiving countries to forge mutual agreements that will recognize educational qualifications in the Philippines.
Difficulty in designing appropriate reintegration and livelihood programs for those who wish to return to the country for good due to the absence of systematic data on their acquired skills and educational background.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Strengthen the data collection and monitoring mechanisms including the study and review of such data to determine the extent to which they are sex-disaggregated and can serve the needs of women migrant workers and policymakers.
Availability of such data will assist the government at the national and local levels in planning and designing reintegration programs and policies for them and their families.
Develop a Training and Needs Analysis (TNA) tool appropriate for the needs of migrant workers which can be used in designing reintegration programs
