Author : United Nations Office of the High Commissioner on Human Rights (OHCHR) | 2013
Published By: United Nations

The High-Level Dialogue (HLD) of the United Nations General Assembly (GM) on international migration represented a key opportunity to address in a comprehensive manner the human rights dimension of international migration which could then also be placed in the context of domestic/internal migration. This brief report attempts to explore why it is important to embed the human rights framework and human-rights approach within the global institutional architecture on migration. The report will map existing governance spaces of migration and human rights and explore possible future directions in this regard.
