International Detention Coalition

The International Detention Coalition (IDC) is a global network focused on promoting humane and rights-based immigration policies. It aims to reduce the use of detention for migrants and refugees, advocating for alternatives that respect human dignity. The IDC works with governments, civil society organizations, and international bodies to raise awareness about the impact of detention and to share best practices for treating displaced individuals with compassion. Through research, advocacy, and collaboration, the IDC strives to ensure that all people, regardless of their migration status, are treated fairly and have access to essential services.
