Improving institutional capacities and fostering cooperation to tackle the impacts of transnational youth migration

Programme 2014 - 2020 INTERREG VB Danube

Date of latest update: 2023-11-06

Description

Description (EN):

Youth migration is intensifying in the Danube Region and it challenges all levels of administrations. It has new drivers (such as online communication channels and new behaviour patterns) and serious developmental consequences. Emigration of the youth may cause a severe loss of labour force and human capital, coupled with untraced incoming transfers (such as social and financial remittances), while immigration, if not properly managed, may result in marginalization and the underuse of human resources. Most of the root causes and consequences of the migration of the youth (aged 15-34) affect the local governments, however, many of them are not sufficiently prepared to deal with the situation. In order to give a proper response to the challenges arising from youth migration and to manage its impacts, local governments of the Danube area need more precise evidence base, data and policy tools. The complexity of the issue calls for a transnational initiative that includes statistical and academic institutions as well, in order to create the framework for coordinated actions of migrant-sending, -receiving and transit communities of the Danube area. YOUMIG, in which 19 partners from 8 countries will work together, wishes to support local governments in exploiting the developmental potential of youth migration, leading to a better governed and more competitive Danube region. The project aims at boosting their institutional capacities to enhance the scarce local evidence on youth migration, contributing to improved policymaking with a focus on human capital. Statistical offices & academic organisations team up with local governments in a complex and tailored multi-level and transnational cooperation to create local developmental strategies based on improved impact indicators of youth migration, and to introduce transnationally tested tools to manage local challenges. As a result, institutions and stakeholders obtain increased capacities through an intensified cooperation.

YOUMIG, in which 19 partners from 8 countries worked together, strived to support local governments in using the developmental potential of youth migration, which is to lead to a better governed and more competitive Danube region. The project boosted their institutional capacities to enhance the scarce local evidence on youth migration and to contribute to improved policymaking with a focus on human capital. Statistical offices and academic organizations teamed up with local governments in a complex and customized multi-level and transnational cooperation to create local developmental strategies based on improved impact indicators of youth migration and to introduce transnationally tested tools for managing local challenges. As a result, institutions and stakeholders obtained increased capacities through an intensified cooperation. http://www.interreg-danube.eu/approved-projects/youmig

Expected Results (EN): Intensity of cooperation of institutional actors and other stakeholders in the programme area in order to tackle major societal challenges (survey based composite indicator)

Expected Outputs (EN):

The activities of YOUMIG will serve the complex capacity building of 16 project partners and their appr. 340 stakeholders and will enable them to establish and deepen cooperation with relevant actors on national and also on transnational level. The intensity of cooperation of European institutional actors to trace and manage the impacts of youth migration will be increased by the project on 2 levels: -Transnational cooperation will be fostered between sending and receiving communities/authorities to establish strengthened evidence base (WP3), test transnational tools (WP4) and carry out complex capacity building (WP4 and WP5). The basic nature of youth migration requires the transnational cooperation of the affected actors, and the project activities will provide the framework for intensifying the level of cooperation between relevant actors. As a result, 13 peer cooperation agreements between local governments and between statistical offices (WP6) will be prepared. -The project will also improve multi-level governance cooperation between national and local authorities by creating policy recommendations on fostering national level cooperation. As a result, 8 cooperation agreements between statistical offices and local governments in partner countries (WP6) will be prepared. The results will be transferred via the wide network of the partnership offering opportunities for further cooperation agreements between national and local authorities and academic institutions.
