December 4:  The European Union Delegation to Nepal hosted a regional seminar on "Making Labour Migration Easy and Safe in South Asia" in Kathmandu, on December 2, with the support of DAI Europe and Centre for South Asian Studies (CSAS)in light of the many challenges faced in the South Asian region in regards to migrant workers.

The event was inaugurated by Dr Swarnim Wagle, Member of National Planning Commission. According to the press statement issued by the Union, the event brought together participants from government institutions, institutes, think-tanks, civil society, media, migration associations, private sector, international community, SAARC Secretariat and international participants including EU Delegations to India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.

The seminar brought an experience-sharing event and showcased the EU policies on Migration and the outlines of the EU funded projects and programmes in the South Asian region. Her Excellency, Rensje Teerink, EU Ambassador to Nepal and to the SAARC said "Migrants' necessities go further than the cooperation of all players that are gathering here today; Migration needs to be addressed in a multi-sector approach and focus on the human, social and labour rights of migrants, their psychological and social well-being, and the development efforts migrants workers can contribute to."
