Immigration Management and Sustainability is a forward-looking and globally relevant training domain. It aligns with 21st-century policy priorities surrounding migration governance, labor mobility, human security, and sustainable development. The program will position STRATI as a thought leader in integrating migration policy with sustainability, inclusion, and resilience — themes deeply relevant to both developing and developed regions. Migration and mobility are powerful drivers of global development, yet they also pose significant challenges for governance, equity, and sustainability. The Immigration Management and Sustainability program trains participants to address complex migration issues through the lenses of policy, law, social inclusion, and environmental sustainability. Participants gain a multidisciplinary understanding of migration systems, refugee governance, labor mobility, diaspora engagement, remittances, and human rights, aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Global Compact for Migration (GCM).
