The Safer Migration Project (SaMi) is a bilateral initiative of the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) and Government of Nepal and implemented by HELVETAS Nepal with the purpose to contribute to safer migration. The main objective of the project is to support potential migrant workers in taking informed decision about foreign employment. The project intends to provide interested women and men with accurate and relevant information prior to departure so that they can protect themselves against possible fraud and exploitation. In addition, the project provides skill training to ensure better employment and seeks to provide legal and paralegal services to the migrants who need such assistance.
