Dignity Across Borders: Gaps and Recommendations regarding Migrants and Families in an Age of Mobility
THE LIVES AND HOPES, the sacrifices and contributions, the needs and rights of migrants and their families worldwide call all of us to explore how civil society, including Church institutions, can organize to better promote human dignity, family unity and universal common good within migration policies at national, regional and international levels. In order to exchange experiences and to better respond to these and the many other challenges, the International Catholic Migration Commission regularly consults its members, the Bishops Conferences worldwide. Very recently ICMC invited its members in Asia for a consultation meeting, which was considered by all participants to be an important step in exchanging useful information and achieving better analysis of identified focal points. This consultation focused on a more regional reading of the current challenges related to labour migration, human trafficking and the need for protection, the well being of migrants and their families, migration and development and the modalities to enhance collaboration. The bird’s eye view of these challenges raised a number of factual elements and challenging statements we invite you to discover in this publication. What you will find here is a series of on-the-ground perspectives from leaders and practicioners directly engaged with and accompanying migrants and their families in countries of origin, transit and destination, in Asia and worldwide. The gaps in migration policies and practices noted here - and the recommendations to address them - are presented in a spirit of collegiality, collaboration, and conviction, for further commitment and action.
