Migration and the 2030 Agenda

How can migration contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)?

The range of sustainable development issues that are covered by the Goals – poverty and hunger, health, education, gender equality, climate change and others – cannot be overcome without due consideration of migration. With the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its Goals, we have an unmissable opportunity to empower migrants to fulfill their development potential, which can, in turn, have positive ripple effects for communities locally, regionally, and globally. By following a family’s migratory journey, these linkages are brought to life.
