Director General of @UNmigration (IOM). We work to promote safe, orderly, and regular migration.

Geneva, Switzerland
Migration can create opportunity when supported by effective policies and strong partnerships. At #UNGA81, my exchanges with Spain, Mexico, El Salvador, and Morocco focused on migration governance, labor mobility, and solutions that benefit people and communities alike.

Skills, jobs and opportunity must be at the center of migration policy. Met with President @julius_maadabio to discuss expanding labor mobility pathways and investing in skills development. Together, we can turn human mobility into a driver of economic growth and opportunity.

Strong partnerships help deliver real results for people. I signed an agreement with @the_IDB to strengthen our work together across Latin America and the Caribbean. By working together, we better support communities, and expand opportunities.

Migration routes connect countries, communities and people. When cooperation breaks down, risks increase. When it works, people are safer & opportunities grow. At #UNGA81, we continue to bring partners together to focus on practical collaboration along migration routes.

The future doesn't start with crises. It starts with planning, partnership, and people. As @UNmigration marks 75 years, one thing remains unchanged: people's search for dignity. Meeting that aspiration requires leadership, cooperation, and action.

As migration patterns become more interconnected, our responses must do the same. With EU Commissioner @magnusbrunner, we discussed advancing route-based cooperation, investing along migration corridors & turning shared responsibility into practical action that delivers results.

@EUSR_GL @JBorgstam engages at #UNGA81 in high level discussion on durable solutions to displacement led by @IOMchief Amy Pope. 🇪🇺 message: National ownership, community inclusion & flexible financing crucial. @EUSR_GL refers to own exchanges with IDPs - their voices are critical

One of the things I value most about #UNGA81: unexpected conversations. It was a pleasure to spend time with leaders from the Bahamas, Micronesia, Panama, the Philippines, Somalia, and Zimbabwe. Progress starts with dialogue and grows through partnership.

Syrian families need more than an exit from a camp. They need safe housing, and livelihoods. IOM is working with the Government, UN and communities so returns lead to lasting solutions built on dignity. The momentum is here. Together, we can help families rebuild their lives.

Families displaced by conflict need shelter, safety and support. Today, I was pleased to sign a USD 2.6 million agreement with @KSrelief_EN to help reach more than 13,000 people in Yemen with critical aid. Partnership is essential to meeting today's humanitarian challenges.

Migration is increasingly shaping regional and global priorities. Thank you @GeneralNeva, President of Burundi and Chairperson of the @_AfricanUnion, for our discussion on climate mobility, training, diaspora, and practical solutions that support development across Africa.

Productive exchange with @IOMchief at #UNGA today. Forced displacement remains at record levels and migration crises keep recurring: deepening EU-IOM cooperation has never been more essential.

Too many families in Haiti have been displaced from their homes and livelihoods. Pleased to meet Alix Didier Fils-Aimé @PrimatureHT to discuss support for displaced and returning communities, opportunities for jobs and livelihoods, and long-term stability and recovery.

Migration is shaping the future of every region. Success won't be measured by how we respond individually, but together. At #UNGA81, I'm focused on ways to help countries manage displacement, meet labor market needs and make migration work for people, communities and economies.

For displaced families, what matters most is whether help arrives when it's needed. IOM provides shelter, protection, and solutions that restore stability and dignity. Reaching more people, faster, needs flexible and predictable funding. #HumanitarianReset

A strong first day at #UNGA81. Conversations with Ghana, Fiji, South Africa and the African Union highlighted shared priorities: countering trafficking, climate impacts, labor mobility and diaspora engagement. These challenges are global, and so must solutions.

Millions of people are on the move because of conflict, violence, and instability. On #PeaceDay, let us recommit to investing in peace, not only through diplomacy, but through strengthened communities and collective action. Peace is a shared responsibility. #InvestInPeace

Smugglers don't see borders. They see a route, and they run it like a business. That's why we're bringing a simple message to #UNGA81: when countries work together, they can save lives, disrupt criminal networks, and manage migration more effectively. iom.int/news/criminal-networ…
