The Reintegration of Returnee Migrant Workers (ReMi) project, initiated in July 2022, is a bilateral initiative of the Governments of Nepal (GoN) and Switzerland. The project is funded by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) and implemented through a partnership between the Ministry of Labour, Employment and Social Security; respective provincial line ministries and 20 local governments in Koshi and Madhesh Province. Helvetas Nepal provides technical assistance on the project.

While reintegration of returnee migrant workers is significant to Nepal, there is a significant dearth of data and statistics on returnee migrant workers which can be accessed readily for analysis, evidence based planning and policy formulation. To address this lack of information, the project is planning to design and develop a Digital Returnee Management Information System (MIS).

1. ReMi/Helvetas Nepal invites sealed Request for Proposals from the eligible consulting firms to develop software for Returnee MIS. The detailed RFP document can be obtained by downloading from https://notice.helvetasnepal.org/
