The Professional Capacity-building Course on Global Migration aims to serve as a continuing education for migration practitioners interested in the comparative and pragmatic approach in studying challenges in managing migration in the context of sustainable development.

The certificate course is composed of seven modules which offer a range of topics that aim to broaden and deepen one’s understanding of international migration, its opportunities and challenges, and implications to development, policy, and management affecting not only migrants and their families but also various stakeholders such as public and private sectors.

  • Analyze challenges and opportunities on migration using interdisciplinary and multi-stakeholder outlooks;
  • Broaden the perspective and understanding on migration management as this relates to policy action and socio-economic development planning and approaches;
  • Explore innovative and practical solutions responsive to the challenges of international migration and sustainable development; and
  • Challenge learners to contribute to specific concerns of the agency or advocacy

The course consists of the following seven modules:

  • Module 1: Migration in the 21st Century: Origins, Concepts, and Role in Sustainable Development
  • Module 2: Migration, International Laws, Rules-based Agreements, and Human Rights
  • Module 3: Dimensions of Migration: Economic, Social, and Cultural Impacts
