The escalating crisis in the Middle East is also affecting migrants across the region. Workers, students and people in transit face uncertainty, limited options and rising protection risks. IOM is working with our partners to support those in need.

During the #COP30 debrief, we discussed how the Belém Political Package recognizes the climate vulnerability and rights of migrants. This ensures their participation in the Just Transition, addressing loss and damage & includes migration in measuring climate adaptation progress.

As the world transitions to a greener economy, no one should be left behind. Migrants help fill gaps in green jobs & bring valuable skills. Protecting their rights & including their voices is essential for a truly just transition. #COP30 🔗 tinyurl.com/374hue6c

The first step to helping people who flee conflicts and disasters is to know where they are and what they need. With support from the European Union, IOM’s Data Lifelines initiative strengthens the Displacement Tracking Matrix, ensuring that humanitarian aid reaches those who need it most.

Human trafficking exploits vulnerabilities along migration routes and across borders. On #WorldDayAgainstTrafficking, we stand with survivors. Protection must follow the person, justice must be survivor-centered, and punishment must never fall on those who were exploited.
