How to make the global compacts on migration and refugees work for uprooted children
The goal of this report is to show that protecting migrant, displaced and refugee children is not only right in principle, it is also right when put into practice. Indeed, governments and their partners are actively engaged in initiatives within countries and across borders to provide care and protection for uprooted children. Host communities also have employed innovative ways to welcome and help integrate them.
UNICEF has produced this report in prepartion of the Global Compact on Migration.
In 2018, political leaders are expected to draft and adopt these two documents. As governments and their partners come together to strengthen governance procedures for global migration and establish guidelines for sharing responsibility to safeguard refugees, UNICEF has called on decision makers to put children at the centre of their discussions. Specifically, UNICEF asks that they commit to six essential policies outlined in the UNICEF Agenda for Action.
