Timor-Leste
The proposed project aims to contribute to the Government of Timor-Leste's efforts in strengthening the national protection mechanism as guaranteed by Law No. 3/2017 on Prevention and Fight against Trafficking in Persons, ranging from identification, referral, protection for victims and witnesses and ensuring the fulfilment of the rights for vulnerable groups, including migrants in Timor-Leste and vulnerable Timorese abroad. To ensure the adequate protection of migrants, women, children and other groups susceptible to vulnerability in Timor-Leste, the project aims to ensure that the protection of these diverse groups is integrated into related strategic decision-making across humanitarian and development sectors/agendas (Outcome 1).
To achieve this outcome, the project will conduct a multi-sectoral assessment and mapping of the protection risks and the existing available mechanism and services and develop a list of recommendations for the government of Timor-Leste (Output 1.1). Simultaneously, it will also foster collaboration among government agencies, civil society organisations, and other relevant stakeholders to provide a coordinated and comprehensive approach towards the protection of migrants, women, girls, and other groups susceptible to vulnerability, including during emergencies, and engage with one municipal government to pilot the recommendations mentioned above (Output 1.2). These combined actions will lay the groundwork towards comprehensive protection mechanism and position the Government of Timor-Leste to reach the project’s overall objective.
