Migrants

People, carrying their belongings, line up at a port.

Migrants contribute their knowledge, networks, and skills to build stronger, more resilient communities. During the past months, migrants have been at the forefront of the fight against COVID-19. However, like many who find themselves living on the margins of society, migrants are disproportionately affected by COVID-19 through job losses, evictions and discrimination. The pandemic cannot an excuse to rollback commitments to protect the rights of migrants regardless of their legal status. On #MigrantsDay (18 December), let’s reaffirm our commitment to safe and dignified migration for all.
