About the organisation
The Asia Pacific Mission for Migrants (APMM) conducts activities and programs that empower grassroots migrants in Asia, Pacific and Middle East regions to promote their dignity, wellbeing and rights. It does this by: 1. Establishing and strengthening community organisations of migrants for mutual support, community programs and harnessing of the collective thrusts, will and actions of migrants; 2. Generating and disseminating knowledge and information to heighten awareness of migrants as individuals and communities for their informed actions; 3. Providing skills training to enable migrants to sustain independent, self-governing and responsive organisations to the needs of migrants including both their individual betterment and community wellbeing; 4. Developing sympathy and support for migrants from among the legal, medical, academic, service and faith communities; 5. Promoting solidarity of migrants from across sectors and countries within the region for mutual learning, support, and partnerships. The regional office of the APMM is based in Hong Kong with program and project staff in other countries in the region. APMM has partners in 14 countries and territories (Australia, Bangladesh, Hong Kong SAR, Indonesia, Japan, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Macau SAR, Malaysia, New Zealand, Philippines, Qatar, South Korea, Taiwan ROC, and Thailand) where localised activities and programs are conducted). Additionally, APMM does secretariat and coordination work for bigger formations as International Migrants Alliance (IMA), Alliance of Marriage Migrants Organisations for Rights and Empowerment (AMMORE), and the Interfaith Network for the Rights of Migrants (INFORM). APMM is governed by the APMM Board of Directors that has members from among the migrant communities, service organisations, academe and the legal profession.
