“…Adger et al (2019) contend that this target reflects the political will of advanced industrialized states which “…frames migration as a temporary and unplanned phenomenon that needs to be managed, rather than as an inherent and longstanding part of sustainable development and social transformation” (Adger et al, 2019, p. e440). Similarly, Suliman (2017), contends that “the SDGs represent a normative framing of migration that sustains a problematic understanding of migration, and reproduces a vision of development that has long been implicated in the production of unequal and deleterious migrant mobilities” (Suliman, 2017, p. 415). Other scholars have built on this vision in different ways.…”

Summary Motivation The United Nations 2030 Agenda recognizes regions as important actors in implementing the sustainable development agenda. At the same time, regions are often criticized for lacking effective implementation, especially in relation to gender equality. Purpose This study examines whether the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) implements its global commitment to gender equality at a regional level. Methods and approach We apply qualitative analysis of key ASEAN documents in order to determine how gender equality is implemented regionally. We particularly focus on frameworks related to female migrant workers in ASEAN. Findings The analysis shows that ASEAN is formally committed to improving gender equality at a regional level, however, female migrants often end up in unfavourable conditions and precarious work relationships without any institutionalized protection because ASEAN's gender equality initiatives are largely concentrated in the Cultural Community and absent from the Economic Community, indicating an absence of normative coherence for development with regard to gender equality. Policy implications This limited impact of emerging regional commitments to gender equality arises from incoherences in ASEAN's normative governance framework which undermine normative coherence for development at the regional level.

“…Hence, capacity building is to be invested in with a view to professionalizing this homogenized new development actor. Adding to the above summarized logic, Suliman, by analyzing the SDGs in terms of migration, comes to the conclusion that, framed in this way, migrants can be indexed according to their potential contributions to the development effort (Suliman 2017). In effect, the attribution of diaspora is mobilized by governments to conclude that a migrant's responsibility to engage is natural and unproblematic.…”

In 2016, the international community, in reaction to the growing number of 'tragedies' occurring as people attempted to move across borders, met to discuss large movements of refugees and migrants. The outcome of this meeting was an agreement to negotiate two Global Compacts, one on refugees and one on migrants, with the aim of facilitating 'orderly, safe, regular and responsible migration and mobility of people'. This article explores how responsibility in the Global Compact on Migrant is expressive of a changed way of 'doing' migration. The language of 'responsibility' raises questions about how the international community views international migration and, by extension, prepares the ground for policy and practice on international migration. Taking a genealogical, jurisprudential approach, we follow the logic which brings migration, development and human rights language together to construct a new subjectivity: that of the 'responsible' migrant. The migrant human will be a rights-bearer because they will contribute to development in particular gendered ways. We argue that assuming a narrow understanding of responsibility misses expressive dynamics in the normalizing of international migration within a new framing to inform international law making.

“…Given the statistics, it is not surprising that the IRC claims refugees are ‘invisible in all SDGs Reports’ (2019, p. 1). Other authors like El Zein et al (2016, cited in Suliman, 2017, p. 425) have realised this and assert that ‘some of the most marginalised people around the world- refugees and international migrant workers, especially women- are at serious risk of being excluded from the SDG process’.…”
