Pleased to meet with Ireland’s Minister of Justice Helen McEntee today. I congratulated the Government’s exceptional work on various migration issues including resettlement, counter trafficking, gender based violence, and for their response to the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine.

The pandemic has shown that migrants and mobility are crucial to building healthy societies but they face inequities in accessing health services. Our data shows that only 56% of countries in the world provided migrants in irregular situations access to vaccines. #UNGA

It was a pleasure to share the stage with Halima Aden, Isra Chaker & @iliacalderon . Climate & human mobility are inextricably linked. We must continue to take the necessary steps to facilitate safe & dignified migration as those affected adapt to the impacts of climate change.

I was pleased to chair a panel on our flagship training programme, the Essentials of Migration Management, at the IOM Council. Impressed by how governments of 🇨🇦 🇵🇭 🇹🇷 and SADC have tailored the program to their diverse needs for effective migration management.

To these bright, inspiring young female activists, I say: be relentless and stay resilient. Disrupt for change. Disrupt for positive outcomes. Disrupt to challenge the status quo. Bring urgency and bring issues of human rights to the spotlight. #OYW2022

Our number one priority is the safety of all those fleeing #Ukraine – including third country nationals – and their ability to get needed assistance. Protection and access to territory should be provided to all without discrimination.

I am touched by the warm welcome, and inspired by the work of colleagues and partners in Kenya and South Sudan. Their commitment and tireless efforts make a concrete and meaningful difference in the lives of migrants, displaced persons, and host communities in the region.

Migrants dream of a dignified life, buy often face difficult journeys. I am proud of our mission’s support to returnees from Cote D'Ivoire and to vulnerable children. I had the privilege to interact with the people we serve and to meet with the dynamic IOM team in Rabat!
