The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade is seeking quotes from the selected providers for the following Activity:
The Activity will contribute to the Strengthening Pacific Labour Mobility (SPLM) programme. It seeks assessment of Labour Mobility Unit (LMU) capacity and capability against a set of outputs and provision of a tailored capacity and capability development plan taking into account the needs of each LMU within the context of funding available for future investment. The overall goal of this specific activity is to have an investment pipeline for the next four years that reflects the outcomes and outputs of SPLM and the funding available for the programme.
Nine Pacific Island countries participate in SPLM: Fiji, Kiribati, Papua New Guinea, Nauru, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu and Vanuatu. Primary stakeholders in Pacific Island countries are the LMUs, which usually sit within a government ministry responsible for either labour, commerce or foreign affairs. These are the key entities that coordinate and implement labour mobility arrangements between the Aotearoa New Zealand Government and Pacific countries. Many also undertake worker recruitment activities.
The Activity will support the following outputs through assessing readiness of (and developing a capacity and capability plan for) the LMUs to:
- take a strategic and inclusive approach to worker selection
- streamline worker processing
- enhance the well-being of workers’ families
- enhance predeparture preparations
- develop and implement reintegration strategies.
These outputs will support the broader programme outcomes with the ultimate goal to increase social and economic well-being and resilience across the Pacific through relevant, effective and enhanced circular labour mobility participation.
This Activity is a key contributor to MFAT being able to assess the best use of its resources in achieving development outcomes. The Activity will be key in determining what each labour sending country needs e.g. more capacity in a LMU, capability development in a particular output area, new systems or processes, resources to support outputs, and stronger relationships with a delivery partner etc.
This Activity will do the scoping work to assess the current state and inform a detailed investment and delivery plan for the next four years, through which SPLM resources will be allocated.
