IOM is dedicated to promoting humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all by providing services and advice to governments and migrants.

The course strengthens regional migration management efforts and builds important relationships and trust between immigration and border officials throughout ASEAN. BCAMP 15 includes participants from eight ASEAN countries, almost half of whom are women. More than 300 immigration managers have now graduated from the BCAMP program since it commenced in 2010.
