Chula Asian Research Center for Migration’s Reports

Asian Research Center for Migration, Chulalongkorn University collaborating with International Organization for Migration (IOM), conducted this research and completed a publication in 2019. This aimed to contribute towards the Governments of Thailand and Cambodia in their efforts to develop transparent and rights-based migration policies and programs which maximize positive contributions of migration to the economies and societies of both countries.

The assessment followed on from the success of the IOM reports published in coordination with Chulalongkorn University, namely “Assessing Potential Changes in the Migration Patterns of Myanmar Migrants and their Impacts on Thailand” (2013) and “Assessing the Potential Changes in the Migration Pattern of Laotian Migrants and Their Impacts on Thailand and Lao People’s Democratic Republic” (2016).

These reports encompassed tailored conclusions and recommendations for the respective Governments, as well as for development partners, and both attracted significant interest from policymakers, practitioners and academics.

As a key country of origin for migrants in Thailand, it is crucial to analyze the situation of Cambodian migrants in Thailand for the governments of Thailand and Cambodia to design and deliver evidence-based policies, strategies and interventions to maximize the developmental benefits of labor migration.
