Advisory for Public-Private Partnership Programme for Migrant Children in Republic of Korea The project is targeting a specific group of migrant children who deserve special attention as the current educational system in Korea is not sufficiently providing educational services. These migrant children in Korea are specially termed as 'Children Who Entered the Country in the Middle.' Seoul OnDream Education Center, the product of public-private partnership, was first initiated in 2015 in an attempt to bridge the gap between the needs of these migrant children and the de facto loopholes of the current educational system. The Center has been operating programmes and services to address these migrant children's needs by offering Korean language classes, art classes, cultural events, connecting vocational trainings, and counseling. However, it has been pointed out that the overall utilization and the satisfaction level of users is not as high as anticipated. Thus, the Center has called for IOM's advisory role in restructuring its programmes and services.  The objective of the proposed project is to contribute to migrant children's rights, integration and social inclusion in Seoul Metropolitan City by enhancing public private programmes that adequately address the needs of the migrant children. The improvement of services and programmes of the Center is expected to be achieved by: IOM's rapid assessment, consultations, and recommendations on programmes; IOM's offering of newly designed monitoring and evaluation tools for better management of the Center; and IOM's consultations for the relevant stakeholders on the use of the produced recommendations and M&E tools. Given Seoul Metropolitan City Government's long-range plan to strengthen the public character of the Center, the proposed project will be utilized as an important guidance for the local government's overall policy for migration itself as well as for migrant children's education.
