Launch of the Bali Process Toolkit for Inclusive Civil Registration
TAGS

This month, UNHCR, in collaboration with the Regional Support Office of the Bali Process (RSO), organized a launch event of the updated Bali Process Toolkit for Inclusive Civil Registration. The launch event aimed to enhance the uptake of this Toolkit among Bali Process Member and Observer States. This was achieved by raising awareness about the Toolkit and emphasizing its importance in reducing civil registration gaps as a risk factor for trafficking in persons and irregular migration, whilst also contributing to reducing the vulnerability of trafficked persons. The event included a panel discussion on civil registration in the context of addressing the issue of irregular migration and migration management. The panelists discussed the challenges faced by hard-to-reach and marginalized groups in accessing civil registration systems.

The Bali Process Toolkit for Inclusive Civil Registration highlights how it can be used by governments to assess civil registration systems to understand the inclusivity of hard-to-reach and marginalized populations, including people living in rural, remote, isolated or border areas; minorities; indigenous people; migrants; non-citizens; asylum seekers; refugees; stateless people; and people without documentation.
