REINTEGRATION PROGRAM IN THE FRAMEWORK OF MOBILITY PARTNERSHIP (MP) Title: Strengthening Armenia's migration management capacities, with special focus on reintegration activities Cost of the program-3 mil. Euro Duration-3 years Program is implemented by 6 EU state members Program Main Implementer – OFII (France) Program Coordinator from Armenian side-State Migration Service of Armenia

PROBLEMS RELATED TO IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROGRAM TOR of the Program has not been developed yet Program should be more directed towards providing reintegration services to returnees than strengthening capacities for policy development Budget envisaged for administrative costs of the program are extremely excessive. It is envisaged to use around 81 % of the program budget on administrative costs, that is to spend 4 Euro for providing 1 Euro service to returnees Mechanisms of cooperation between OFII and respective bodies of participating states have not been clarified yet The issue of Steering Committee of the Program are unclear as well.
