Global Compact for Migration

The Global Compact for Migration is an international agreement adopted by the United Nations in 2018, aimed at improving the management of migration worldwide. It promotes safe, orderly, and regular migration, emphasizing the protection of migrants’ rights and the need for international cooperation. The compact outlines responsibilities for countries to enhance cooperation, provide humanitarian assistance, and ensure the safety of migrants while addressing the challenges of irregular migration. It serves as a framework for countries to collaborate on policies and practices that benefit both migrants and society as a whole, recognizing migration as a shared global issue.
