  1. USING Labour migration to BUILD resilience in sending communities Luke Craven, University of Sydney

  2. How we think about resilience • A combination of two elements: • The capacity of exposed individuals to adapt. • The processes that intensify risk and inhibit adaptive capacity. • Question: how do temporary labour migration schemes affect adaptive capacity in sending communities? • How can these schemes be designed to ensure contributions to adaptive capacity are maximised?

  3. Conceptual overview of vulnerability-poverty linkages

  4. My key findings from Vanuatu • Migration is both a cause and consequence of local vulnerabilities. • Migration has adverse consequences on a number of factors which contribute to adaptive capacity: • Local food security • Social capital and community cohesion • A overreliance on unsecure revenue streams • TLMPs can be better designed to mitigate these problems.

  5. Conceptual overview of findings

  6. Making migration resilience-friendly

  7. Creating more effective TLMPs • Population mobility is not a replacement for other forms of development assistance. • Designing better recruitment processes. • Establishing mechanisms to encourage ‘community remittances’ • Involving local communities in policy development. • Involving employers in impact assessment.
