Migration
Migration is a fundamental part of human behaviour. Climate change, environmental pollution, natural disasters, violent conflicts, economic insecurity are some of the reasons why people migrate. While inequalities and power structures exacerbate the reasons to leave one’s home, the lines between forced and chosen migration are rarely clear.
Our social democratic vision for the future is a world in which migration is a free choice and mobility is based on the values of human rights and global solidarity. Based on the Global Compacts on Migration and on Refugees, and the Sustainable Development Goals and through close collaboration with the UN Network on Migration, OHCHR, the Treaty Body System, Special Rapporteurs, and civil society we work to strengthen the promotion and protection of human rights of all migrants.

Special Edition III: The Mont Blanc Trade News
The doors are shut. The 13th Ministerial Conference of the WTO in Abu Dhabi is over. And we are happy to provide you with unusual reporting about this major event. You are able to read three issues of the “WTO MC 13 Special Edition”; a first one published just before the official opening, number two providing views on the process and progress during the MC, and this one published in the aftermath of MC13 with some takeaways and reflections on the outcome. We want you to read from countries and stakeholders themselves, some of whom might for some reasons sometimes be overlooked and overheard during such major events.
