Global Forum on Migration and Development

The Global Forum on Migration and Development (GFMD) is an intergovernmental initiative that brings together countries to discuss and share ideas on migration and its impact on development. Established in 2007, it focuses on improving the lives of migrants and their families, while fostering cooperation between nations. The GFMD encourages dialogue about best practices, policies, and ways to ensure that migration benefits both migrants and societies. It highlights the importance of managing migration effectively to promote sustainable development, human rights, and social inclusion globally.
