Ecuador 🇪🇨 y Alemania 🇩🇪 presentan el proyecto “OPORTUNIDADES”, cuyo objetivo es fortalecer la integración económica y social de ecuatorianos retornados, comunidades de acogida y personas en movilidad humana, con énfasis en mujeres y jóvenes.
I had a successful meeting with Gary Coronel, Vice Minister of @FinanzasEc. We discussed the important contribution of migrants to Ecuador’s economy and their role as a driving force for development in both countries of origin and host countries.
I joined @UNOPS Deputy Executive Director Kristine Damkjaer and fellow UN colleagues for an insightful #UNCT session. We explored how stronger partnerships can advance migrant inclusion, sustainable development, and support #Ecuador as a #GCM champion.
Cancillería y OIM presentan el Plan Nacional de Implementación del Pacto Mundial para una Migración Segura, Ordenada y Regular en Ecuador 2025–2029. El Gobierno Nacional fortalecerá la gobernanza migratoria del país y la lucha contra la migración irregular.
Honoured to meet @gabisommerfeld to commend Ecuador’s leadership in advancing rights-based migration governance and commitment to multilateralism. From pioneering regularisation and diaspora engagement to leading the #QuitoProcess, #Ecuador sets the standard in the region.
At today’s launch of National Implementation Plan 2025–2029, I appreciated #Ecuador’s leadership as a GCM Champion. A true whole-of-government and society effort shaped by local voices and global partnerships. This plan sets a regional benchmark for safe and orderly migration.
Productive exchange w/ Mr. Lee Jung Wook, @KOICACOLOMBIA. Since 2022, we have advanced peace building, migration response & humanitarian support in #Colombia. Looking ahead, we aim to expand cooperation on durable solutions, climate resilience & conflict-affected communities.
Pleasure to meet with @CarlosFGalan, Mayor of Bogotá – a city that has become a model for urban inclusion, hosting over 589K migrants & 360K victims of conflict. Together, we will continue to work towards socio-economic integration & smart solutions for the benefit of Bogotá.
Honored to join today’s #GFMD Voluntary Dialogue on the Global Compact for Migration. The Compact remains a vital tool of multilateralism – showing that collective action on migration delivers results. Partnerships, data, & cooperation will be key as we look ahead to #IMRF2026.
Glad to meet with Special Rapporteur on the human rights of Internally Displaced Persons @PaulaGaviriaB. I extended my appreciation for her efforts and leadership to uphold the rights and dignity of IDPs. Her voice brings visibility and authority to the displacement agenda.
At a time when migration debates are polarised, we need spaces for dialogue and collaboration. Honoured to open the 15th #GFMD - a space for inclusive discussion and partnerships towards efficient migration governance.
Lives hang in the balance in #Gaza. Families endure relentless displacement, hunger, and disease with no safe place to turn. Aid is ready. Ceasefire now.
Grateful to Foreign Minister @ryvillavicencio for hosting the 15th #GFMD & for Colombia’s leadership in migration governance. From humanitarian aid to regularisation & socio-economic integration of migrants, returnees & IDPs, Colombia sets a powerful example of inclusive policy.
Just arrived in Riohacha for the 15th #GFMD Summit. Looking forward to the important conversations ahead on migration and partnerships. Delighted as well for the chance to meet our incredible @OIMColombia colleagues whose tireless work continues to change lives every day.
Congratulations to our IOM's Goodwill Ambassador, Sir Mo Farah, on receiving an honorary degree from Oxford University! 🎓 What a proud moment to share and inspire, truly well deserved!
What can I say, a dream come true… a boy from Feltham, wow! Feeling blessed to have received an honorary degree from Oxford University yesterday. 🎓 Having my twin daughters there made it even more special – a moment I’ll cherish forever. 🇬🇧
On this #EidAlAdha, I’m thinking of the many who mark this day in places of uncertainty—displacement sites, temporary shelters, or in exile. Your courage and resilience continue to inspire us all. May peace and safety reach you soon. #EidMubarak
In Rome, I met with Marco Riccardo Rusconi, Director of @aics_it, to discuss our cooperation on migration & development and ways to further engage diaspora communities as key actors of transnational development.
Empowering diaspora means empowering communities. With Belgium’s support, @UNMigration is investing in inclusive leadership, financial access, and long-term development. Thank you for believing in people. @iombelux @BelgiumDGD @Enabel_Belgium @FedasilBelgium @BelgiumUNGeneva
“I met people who had effectively nowhere else to turn,” @IOMchief told me of visiting #Gaza. Since a ceasefire ended, “our ability to get anything in to support shelter has been nonexistent, & so we know the suffering has only increased enormously.” thenationalnews.com/news/mena/2025…
Migration is human. And when well managed, it’s a force for good. 122 million people displaced by conflict, poverty, and climate breakdown. How we manage it, how we protect people, stabilize communities, and offer real solutions for a world on the move, is up to us!
