Blue Birds

The Blue Birds labour migration pilot researched whether temporary labour migration can bring advantages to all concerned: migrants, the Dutch labour market and countries of origin. The pilot aimed to identify advantages and disadvantages, constraints and risks to explore new ways to handle migration.

The pilot was terminated prematurely in the summer of 2011. The final reports can be downloaded here:

• The Labour Migrant Newspaper | December 2011
• Pilot lessons and recommendations | November 2011
