Abstract

A second area of substantial consensus was the need for a holistic, comprehensive approach to migration in the global compact on migration. Global strategies to manage international movements of people must build on strong and coherent national policies. At the same time, national policies must be built on the interests and needs of local communities in which migrants reside. With nearly all countries today simultaneously, albeit to varying degrees, being countries of origin, transit and destination for migrants, national migration policies need to be balanced and comprehensive. They must address nationals moving abroad, migrants transiting through and coming to other countries, and migrants returning home. Effective national policies also need to be consistent with agreed international legal frameworks and mechanisms for international cooperation. At the same time, global migration priorities and principles need to take account of different national and regional migration realities. A unified vision of migration at the national level will help ensure that policies are well coordinated, coherent and comprehensive.
