Established in 1951, IOM is the leading inter-governmental organization in the field of migration and works closely with governmental, intergovernmental and non-governmental partners. IOM is dedicated to promoting humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all. It does so by providing services and advice to governments and migrants. 

The IOM Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific (ROAP) in Bangkok, Thailand is covering 40 countries across the Asia and Pacific region. The key responsibility of the ROAP is to formulate regional strategies and plans of action and to provide programmatic and administrative support to the countries within the region. 

Context: 

The IOM Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific (ROAP), based in Bangkok, Thailand, provides technical guidance and expertise to IOM Country Offices across the region in addressing transnational organized crime, including Trafficking in Persons (TIP) for Forced Criminality (FC). The 42nd ASEAN Summit highlighted the urgency of combating trafficking for forced criminality, particularly in relation to online scams, through the adoption of the Declaration on Combating Trafficking in Persons Caused by the Abuse of Technology. In 2023, ASEAN member states were identified as both key countries of origin for victims (Viet Nam, Indonesia, Myanmar) and top countries of exploitation or transit (Cambodia, the Philippines, Myanmar, Lao PDR, and Thailand). This underscores the need for robust regional data analysis and management to inform evidence-based responses

To support this effort, IOM seeks to engage a consultant to develop a regional data analysis and data management framework for TIP for FC in Asia and the Pacific. The consultancy will consolidate IOM's anonymized data into regular analytical snapshots to identify trends, routes, and victim profiles. This will address gaps in real-time analysis and strengthen support for governments and counter-trafficking stakeholders.
