FOREWORD BY IOM TIMOR-LESTECHIEF OF MISSION
As Chief of Mission of the Internaonal Organizaon for
Migraon in Timor-Leste (IOM-TL), I am pleased to presentour Strategic Plan for 20112013. This Plan is the rst of
its kind since IOM started its operaons in Timor-Leste in
August 1999. It is intended to chart the future course and
direcon of IOM-TLs work over the next three years and to
realign our priories so that they reinforce and support the migraon-related
strategies developed by the Government of Timor-Leste (GoTL). By ensuring
eecve use of its resources and seng clear priories, IOM-TL intends to increase
its overall impact.
Four overarching strategic objecves are idened in this Plan:
1. To harness the potenal benets of ruralurban and internaonal migraon
for naonal development.
2. To strengthen the ability of the GoTL to eecvely manage migraon.
3. To support the reducon of human tracking, migrant smuggling, and the
abuse of vulnerable migrants through increased prevenon, protecon and
prosecuon measures.
4. To enhance capacity to respond to forced migraon caused by natural and
man-made disasters and ensure orderly and sustainable return and (re)
integraon of migrants.
This Plan is based on the input of our naonal and internaonal partners. More
than 21 consultaon meengs were held with 27 dierent stakeholders, including
government ocials, United Naons senior ocials, the donor community,
implemenng partners, and civil society representaves. We are extremely grateful
to all those who shared their ideas, feedback, and recommendaons which have
helped to ensure that this Plan reects the overarching needs and naonal priories
of the Government and people of Timor-Leste. We are parcularly grateful to
all donors who have been supporng IOM operaons in Timor-Leste from thebeginning to date. Their invaluable contribuon has enabled IOM to support the
GoTL to manage migraon with the required eecveness, including in the form of
sustainable response to the most urgent protecon needs of migrants.
It is our hope that this Plan will help contribute to the vision of Timor-Leste as a
country that is capable of managing migraon for the benet of all.

INTRODUCTION
Role and mandate of IOM
IOM globally
Established in 1951, IOM is the leading internaonal inter-governmental organizaon
in the eld of migraon. IOM acts with its partners in governments, civil society, and
the internaonal community to help ensure the orderly and humane management
of migraon, to promote internaonal cooperaon on migraon issues, to
assist in the search for praccal soluons to migraon problems, and to provide
humanitarian assistance to migrants in need, including refugees, internaonally
stranded migrants, vicms of human tracking, and internally displaced persons
(IDPs). IOMs global work is broadly categorized into four main areas of migraonmanagement, including: 1) migraon and development; 2) facilitang migraon;
3) regulang migraon; and 4) forced migraon. Currently, these four areas are
being further expanded based on IOMs global strategy.

IOMs structure is highly decentralized and service-oriented. There are currently
18 Missions with Regional Funcons serving as resource centres and seven Special
Liaison Missions.
IOM has experienced rapid growth in the past 10 years: Membership increased from 67 States in 1998 to 132 States in 2011 and
connues to grow.2
Total expenditure increased from USD 242.2 million in 1998 and exceeded
USD 1 billion in 2010.
Field locaons increased from 119 in 1998 to 400 at present.
Acve projects increased from 686 in 1998 to more than 2,820 at present.
Operaonal sta increased from approximately 1,100 in 1998 to more than
7,000 at present, almost enrely in the eld.
IOM is enrely a projeczed organizaon. Sta and oce costs associated with
implemenng a project are charged to projects through a me-allocaon concept
referred to as projeczaon. Every nancial contribuon to a project in IOM is
assigned a disnct project code, and every project is managed by a project manager
to ensure that the respecve acvies are monitored and accounted for in a
responsible, transparent and ecient manner. In 2009, more than 97 per cent of
IOMs funding was in the form of voluntary contribuons for projects. The remainder
represents the administrave budget, funded from Member State contribuons.
To cover its indirect costs, IOM generally charges 5 per cent on the total cost of
projects for administrave support. IOMs administrave fees are among the lowest
of all internaonal organizaons.
IOM in Timor-Leste
IOM has been present in Timor-Leste since August 1999. Inially, the main focus
of the Missions work was on providing return and reintegraon assistance to the
approximately 190,000 Timorese people who ed to West Timor during the 1999
post-referendum violence. IOM-TL also parcipated in the demobilizaon and
reintegraon of ex-Falinl combatants, and undertook community stabilizaon
iniaves and infrastructure recovery projects. In response to the civil unrest of
2006, IOM-TL quickly began its work supporng the Government of Timor-Leste
(GoTL) in its response to internal displacement and the development of durable
soluons for the aected populaon. With the closure of IDP camps in early 2010,
IOM-TL assisted the return of over 17,000 families to communies.
2 Timor-Leste became one of the newest member states in November 2010 during the IOM annual Council
meeng.

During and aer the crisis, IOM-TLs strength has been its ability to react quickly
through its rapid mobilizaon of resources, its exible approach, and its ability to
support an eecve emergency response at the naonal and community level.
IOM-TL also developed strong and eecve partnerships with the GoTL at the
naonal and local level. This has posioned it well to provide sustained capacity
development support to various ministries in developing strategies, policies, and
systems to foster the beerment of migrants assistance, and to support community
stabilizaon and disaster risk management.
In line with Timor-Lestes transion from a post-crisis environment, IOM-TL has alsosupported the government in aaining its longer-term development goals through
the provision of technical assistance and advice to further strengthen instuonal
capacity. Since 2005, the IOM Mission in Timor-Leste has been working closely
with the GoTL to develop coherent and well-coordinated migraon systems to
ensure ecient migraon management for Timorese cizens, visitors, immigrants,
irregular migrants, and asylum-seekers. The Mission has also been providing
support and technical assistance to the government and civil society in dealing with
new emerging trends such as human tracking and migrant smuggling.
IOM facilitates the sustainable
return of IDP families from the last
tented IDP camp, Menaro, July
2009.

IOMs counter-tracking unit provides training for front line law enforcement ocers in
all 13 districts. This project was completed in August 2010.
Why a strategic plan now?
In response to the changing operaonal context and the idened need of the
GoTL and civil society for sustained developmental assistance, IOM-TL has decided
to reassess its priories in order to ensure that they are fully aligned with new
challenges and capacity development needs of the GoTL and civil society. In
order to do this, extensive consultaons were undertaken with a wide range ofgovernmental, non-governmental, and internaonal partners to idenfy needs,
requests, and gaps, as well as areas where IOM-TL is able provide technical advice
and assistance in line with its mandate and established in-country experse.
Consultaon meengs with external stakeholders provided an honest and frank
assessment of IOM-TLs impact and eecveness, as well as suggesons of priority
areas for its future work. The internal consultaon sessions were an important
opportunity to analyse organizaonal strengths and weaknesses, idenfy external
opportunies and threats, and set relevant and realisc priories in line with
idened needs and gaps.
This Strategic Plan for 20112013 provides a mul-year, overarching framework for
carrying out IOM-TLs work. It is oriented towards achieving the vision of Timor-
Leste as a country that is capable of managing migraon for the benet of all.
This strategic framework will be used by IOM-TL as the basis for developing and
elaborang future project proposals. This Plan has intenonally been kept general
in order to allow for connued exibility in responding to evolving needs and
priories idened by the government, civil society, and other stakeholders.

IOM-TLs comparave advantage
Based on the feedback received through the consultaon process, four key areas
were idened where IOM-TL maintains a clear comparave advantage and niche
role in terms of providing future support to the GoTL and civil society. These areasare also in line with IOMs global areas of focus and experse.
Counter-tracking
IOM-TL currently serves as the lead internaonal organizaon
supporng the GoTL and civil society to counter human tracking.
This lead role of IOM-TL is widely acknowledged among the
government, civil society, the internaonal community, and donors,
and specic menon was given to IOM-TLs ability to successfully
train and build the capacity of the Naonal Police of Timor-Leste
(PNTL) in all 13 districts of the country. IOM-TLs role in successfullyraising awareness about the issue and in providing technical and
legal support and assistance to relevant government and civil society
actors in order to strengthen their eorts to prevent tracking and
protect vicms is also seen as an important comparave advantage.
Many stakeholders idened a connuing need for further IOM-TL
support in the implementaon of legislaon, the ongoing training
of police and other government ocials, and the prosecuon of
tracking-related cases.
M
igraonmanagement
The government, the internaonal community, and donorsexpressed a high regard for the technical experse and assistance
that IOM-TL is able to provide in supporng the GoTL to develop
coherent and well-coordinated migraon systems to ensure ecient
migraon management. Given IOM-TLs role as a lead internaonal
organizaon in the area of migraon, many feel that the Mission is
well placed to connue supporng the GoTL to eecvely manage
migraon and ensure inter-agency coordinaon in the development
and implementaon of migraon management issues. Many also
feel that IOM-TL has an important role to play in providing sustainedcapacity development support to the Migraon Service to funcon
as an agency outside the PNTL.

IOM-TLs strong experience in expediously responding to
emergencies and disasters in Timor-Leste is also seen as a comparave
advantage by government, internaonal, and civil society partners.
Many feel that, based on its past emergency response role, IOM-TL
remains well posioned to connue to support government-led and-owned disaster migaon and prevenon, parcularly in light of its
established internaonal experse in this area. IOM-TLs experience
in facilitang ecient coordinaon between relevant government
agencies, departments, and vulnerable communies is idened as
an asset, as well as IOMs strategic role as global and local cluster lead
for Camp Coordinaon and Camp Management (CCCM) in natural
disasters. The contribuon of IOM and its implemenng partners in
helping to strengthen the ability of governmental, district, and local
actors to prevent, migate and manage disaster through IOM-TLsDisaster Risk Reducon project (which has been running since 2008)
is also regarded as an important basis for sustained IOM support in
this area.

IOM-TLs demonstrated experience in promong community
stabilizaon iniaves in locaons of high IDP return is idened
as an area where it has a niche role. Many stakeholders regarded
the Missions experse in the areas of trust - building, mediaon,
and dialogue as important for ensuring sustainable return and
reintegraon of IDPs. Some stakeholders specically idened aneed for further IOM-TL support to the government in responding
to increased rural-to-urban migraon and developing iniaves to
promote integraon and community cohesion.
The four strategic objecves set out in this Plan are in line with these idened
comparave advantages/niche areas and directly correspond to the needs and gaps
idened through the stakeholder consultaon meengs.
Partners and beneciaries
IOM-TL will employ an inclusive, parcipatory, and transparent approach in assisng
its target populaons through the acve engagement of all relevant stakeholders in
the design, implementaon, and evaluaon of its projects. IOM-TLs relaonship
with beneciaries will be based on and guided by the principle of ownership in
order to ensure sustainability of results.

by the GoTL, as well as the Programme of the IV Constuonal Government for
20072012, the Internaonal Compact for Timor-Leste, the 2007 Naonal Recovery

PERFORMANCE MONITORING AND EVALUATION
The implementaon of this Strategic Plan will be based on exisng and future
projects developed by IOM-TL, which will set out specic acvies to be undertakenby Mission sta towards the fullment of the four overarching strategic objecves.
All acvies included in Mission projects will directly correspond to the outputs in
this Strategic Plan.
Results-based monitoring and evaluaon mechanisms will be established in order
to ensure ongoing performance monitoring and evaluaon of the Strategic Plan.
This will require the connued engagement of the IOM-TL Strategic Planning Team
in coordinang the annual review and evaluaon process in order to assess and
measure implementaon of the Strategic Plan and idenfy necessary revisions tothe Plan.
The Chief of Mission and Heads of Units will have primary responsibility for
overseeing and monitoring the implementaon process and for assessing and
evaluang progress. The baseline data and indicators set out in the Performance
Measurement Framework for this Plan (see Annex B) will be used in order to
eecvely measure the results and impact of IOM-TLs work.
In order to ensure full transparency and accountability, public reports on the
implementaon status of the Strategic Plan will be developed. Such reports will be
issued on an annual basis. A nal impact report will be prepared in early 2014 in
order to assess the implementaon of the Strategic Plan. This report will be based
on the results of an independent evaluaon and will incorporate feedback from the
government, United Naons partners, donors, civil society, and project beneciaries.
All reports will be made publicly available, including on IOM-TLs website.

RISK ASSESSMENT
In implemenng this Strategic Plan, it is important to acknowledge that certain
events and developments, if realized, will have an adverse eect on IOM-TLs
ability to achieve its strategic objecves. Consequently, it is necessary for IOM-TLto understand and idenfy possible situaonal, developmental, organizaonal, and
nancial/contractual and reputaonal risks associated with parcular strategies
and to idenfy clear responses to eecvely migate these risks.

Situaonal risks
Mass displacement
occurs due to a
natural or man-made
disaster
Medium High IOM-TL is providing technical support and
assistance to NDMD and District Disaster
Management Commiees (DDMC)
through its Disaster Risk Reducon project,
which aims to strengthen the capacity
of the GoTL to migate and respond to
displacement caused by natural and man-
made disasters. In the case of a natural
disaster, the Mission would liaise with the
IOM Emergency and Post-Crisis Division at
IOM Headquarters.
The Transional Land
Law is approved
and results in
manifestaons of
social unrest and
instability
Low High IOM-TL is well placed to support the
GoTL in socializing the implicaons of
the Law and mainstreaming informaon
about land reform process into ongoing
community stabilizaon acvies.
Timor-Leste agrees
to the establishment
of a regional asylum
processing centre
and IOM-TL is askedto provide extensive
advice and technical
assistance, which
causes its strategic
focus to shi and
overstretches its
operaonal capacity
Medium Medium IOM-TL would cooperate with other
internaonal and local partners in
providing such assistance. Such support
would also be in line with the Missions
Strategic Plan under strategic objecvethree related to IOM-TLs role in providing
connued assistance to irregular migrants.
In case the Missions role is expanded,
and addional resources are needed,
consultaons would be conducted with
government and donors.

able to funcon
independently by the
end of the project
period
Medium High All IOM-TL capacity-development projects
connue including a transion or phase-
out plan that allows sta working in the
government as advisors to be successfully
withdrawn by the end of the project cycle.Objecves for capacity-building assistance
and performance indicators are discussed
and shared with government counterparts
at the beginning of the project and
regularly assessed and evaluated as the
project is implemented.
Instuonal
weaknesses and
polical issues
within government
instuons impede
implementaon of
strategies, policies,
systems or pracces
Medium High Instuonal readiness to absorb and
benet from capacity development
assistance connues to be determined
through a comprehensive needs
assessment conducted prior to the
placement of an advisor within the
instuon. Part of the assessment ensures
that there is strong leadership within the
instuon to ensure ownership of change
and to lead and drive the process.
Organizaonal and nancial/contractual risks
There is high sta
turnover within
IOM-TL
Medium High Good succession planning is in place
within the Mission as well as measures
to support the recruitment and retenon
of experienced, high-quality sta. Amandatory handover process including
a comprehensive handover report is
required of key sta leaving the Mission.
IOM does not receive
the required donor
funds to implement
its strategic priories
Medium High IOM-TL has developed a three-year
Strategic Plan that addresses and builds on
donor priories.

Reputaonal risks
Lack of
understanding
about IOMs internal
organizaon and
policies
Medium High IOM-TL, through its Strategic Plan and its
ongoing coordinaon with other partners
and stakeholders, will connue to share
informaon about its project-based
structure and its projeczaon approach.
IOM-TL is seen as
duplicang the
work of other
internaonal/local
actors in Dili
Low Medium In developing its three-year strategic plan,
IOM-TL has carefully considered the plans
and intenons of other internaonal and
local actors in order to avoid duplicaon
and ensure that new project ideas are
symbioc and well coordinated.
IOM-TL is seen as
working outside of its
mandate
Medium High IOM-TL has developed a three-year
Strategic Plan based on IOMs global
mandate, which outlines clear strategic
areas where the Missions work will focusover the next three years. The global
mandate of IOM and IOM-TLs country-
specic mandate are clearly explained in
the Strategic Plan.
