Abstract
Throughout the discussions at the IDM, the participants referred to the global compact on migration as a historic opportunity to strengthen the protection of the rights of migrants, including those in vulnerable situations, and enhance governance of and international cooperation on migration. They stressed the need to make the most of what was a unique chance. The IOM Director General articulated the historic role of the global compact on migration in the opening panel discussion: “The process upon which we are embarked offers the international community a trailblazing opportunity to develop a comprehensive global framework for the governance of global human mobility. We dare not miss this ‘rendezvous with history’. This moment has been long – too long – in coming, and is not likely to come again soon if we miss this opportunity. We dare not fail.”
