“People are not moving for one single reason. They are moving because of overlapping pressures that accumulate over time, often leaving them with no meaningful choice.” - IDC’s Carolina Gottardo at the #IMRF

Discussing the fundamental topic of migrant labour rights and protections at the #IMRF, Fulya Pınar Özcan states that there can be no migrant dignity without freedom to work 💪

“International agreements like the Global Compact for Migration will only be as effective as the impact they actually have on migrant lives.” - Carolina Gottardo, Executive Director, International Detention Coalition #IMRF

"Human dignity is not given by passport. It is not removed by crossing a border. It is simply inherent." - Deepti Thakoor, National Human Rights Commission Mauritius #IMRF #MigrantRights #HumanRights

❗️ We continue to face grave human rights violations against migrants – deportations, disappearances & xenophobic discourse. We must strengthen compliance to international human rights law & standards. - Blanca Gomez, Committee of Families of Disappeared Migrants & Bloqud latinoamericano #IMRF

📣 The #IMRF opens with a clear message: as migration becomes increasingly politicised, it’s more vital than ever that migration governance remains effective, humane and grounded in evidence. For the GCM to work, it needs to have a genuine impact on the lives and rights of migrants.
