International Organization for Migration (IOM)
Founded in 1951, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) stands at the forefront of intergovernmental efforts in migration matters. It upholds the belief that well-managed migration is beneficial for both migrants and societies. As a part of the United Nations system, IOM operates as a related organization.
IOM’s role is pivotal in supporting migrants globally, crafting adaptive strategies to the evolving patterns of migration. It serves as a crucial advisor on migration policies and practices. The organization is actively involved in crisis situations, focusing on enhancing the resilience of migrants, especially those in vulnerable circumstances. Additionally, it aids governments in handling various aspects and consequences of migration.
The IOM operates under the principles set out in the United Nations Charter, prioritizing the protection of human rights for everyone. Ensuring the rights, dignity, and overall well-being of migrants is of utmost importance in its operations.
