International Migrants Day represents an occasion to reflect on the difficult situations faced by migrants all over the world who struggle with poverty, violence and incredible hardship. This is the case, for instance, of the many Haitians who have tried to make their way towards the United States.
On International Migrants Day 2015, the International Catholic Migration Commission (ICMC) reiterates the importance of establishing effective legal pathways and ensuring the respect of the human rights of migrants, including those who are undocumented or in an irregular situation.
On the occasion of International Women’s Day, ICMC celebrates the economic, political and social achievements of women in bringing about sustainable change in their communities. ICMC takes the opportunity to look back at past projects that have allowed women to develop their potential and have enabled them to create models for sustainable development.
