Civil Society
Advocacy Briefs
Here you’ll find the Civil Society Advocacy Briefs from our Civil Society Thematic Dialogues for the 15th GFMD process (2024–2025), leading up to the Summit in Riohacha, Colombia.
Each brief captures what civil society set out in those dialogues: lived experience, evidence, and concrete proposals for rights-based, people-centred migration governance.
Use them to understand our priorities, draw on actionable recommendations, and carry the work forward onto the GFMD and beyond.
