UN reports 1 in 30 people globally are migrants, calls for protection of their rights

 

The United Nations has revealed that a staggering 1 in every 30 people worldwide is a migrant, highlighting the need for urgent action to protect the rights of these individuals.

According to the UN, people migrate for a variety of reasons, including seeking a better life, finding safety, and reuniting with family. Despite their diverse backgrounds and destinations, migrants share a common humanity and deserve to have their rights protected.

The UN emphasized that migrants are not just statistics, but human beings with inherent dignity and worth. As such, it is imperative that their rights are respected, protected, and fulfilled, regardless of their nationality, immigration status, or circumstances.

The global migration crisis demands a comprehensive and coordinated response from governments, international organizations, and civil society. The UN calls on all stakeholders to work together to promote the safety, dignity, and well-being of migrants, and to uphold their fundamental human rights.
