Prefacio
El 2020 ha sido un año extenuante. La pandemia ocasionada por la enfermedad coronavírica (COVID-19) ha traído consigo una crisis sanitaria con efectos socioeconómicos y humanitarios devastadores que, aunque no afectan a todas las regiones por igual, tampoco dejan a nadie indemne.
Conclusions and key takeaways
During the final session, main takeaways were outlined and tangible recommendations on the five prioritizing acceleration points covered during the IDM New York session were drafted, in a way that also intends to feed into the upcoming HLPF and UN-HLM on UHC.
Concluding remarks and links with the summit for the future
The 2024 International Dialogue on Migration (IDM) has brought to the forefront the undeniable truth that migration, when effectively managed, holds the potential to be one of the greatest forces for global good, bearing benefits for migrants, their families and all the communities involved.
Research objectives
This research aims to understand the intersection of the child protection system, migration governance and children on the move in Ethiopia, with a particular focus on child-trafficking practices in Ethiopia.
Format of the report
This report offers a comprehensive summary of the main findings of this IDM session discussion.

Scope of the research
Although the study presents an overview of the different experiences of children on the move in Ethiopia, including internally displaced persons (IDPs), refugee children and international migrants, the emphasis of the study is particularly on the internal displacement of children within Ethiopia – and within three cities in particular: Adama, Addis Ababa and Debre Birhan.
Welcome session and keynote address
To set the stage of the overall discussion, during the keynote address the IOM Director General emphasized the significance of the IDM, underscoring the importance of facilitating pathways for regular migration.
Cross-sector challenges and responses
The survey responses related to cross-sector challenges predominantly centred around the availability and distribution of resources, infrastructure maintenance, and the threats environmental conditions pose to health, human security, and food security.
Goal and expected outcomes
The International Dialogue on Migration Spring session that took place at United Nations Headquarters in New York on 21 and 22 May 2023 brought States and diverse partners together to explore how to create more and better opportunities for people to move in a regular and beneficial way as part of a comprehensive approach to human mobility.
Key environmental, climate change, and environmental degradation challenges and community responses in Yemen
Yemen confronts a climate crisis that jeopardizes its environmental, social, and economic stability. The nation’s precarious institutional and developmental landscape – among the world’s lowest – challenge resilience and response capabilities.

مسارات إصلاح الحماية الاجتماعية لمجتمعات أكثر مساوا ة ةً وتماسكا
إذا كان لنُظُم وبرامج الحماية الاجتماعية أن تحد بفعالية من عدم المساواة، لا بدّ لها وأن تشمل الجميع، وأن تتلقى تمويلًا تصاعدياً، وأن تستجيب لاحتياجات الفئات الأكثر عرضة للمخاطر وغيرها. ولتحقيق ذلك، على الحكومات أن توائم بين التخطيط للتنمية الاقتصادية والسياسة الاجتماعية بحيث تراعي كل منهما متطلبات الأخرى.
