Worldwide Coordination Against Migrant Policies

On 11th May, the Latin American Red Jesuita a Migrantes pubished a public statement endorsed by 95 organizations in the region, Spain and Italy. The text, was titled Concerns regarding Migration Management and Protection in the Americas, and it was written and coordinated from RJM with the jesuit works interested in advocating against the decisions of the United States ahead of the expiration of Title 42 and the recent agreements with other
countries in the region are having a significant impact and putting guaranteed Human Rights at risk, particularly the right to request International Protection.

We are featuring the dynamic on this website as we think it’s a very interesting example of new dynamics of global coordination around specific issues that generate international attention.

The statement called for shared and coordinated effort, carried out with the implicated
Governments, that will restore high standards regarding the protection of Human Rights and
International Protection in the region, and work towards agreements which will promote a
regional response focused on informed, accompanied, and protected migration that keep people and their rights at the center.
