Club de Madrid at the Summit of the Global Forum on Migration and Development

Club de Madrid participated in the Summit of the Global Forum on Migration and Development, 2-4 September, that took place in Riohacha (Colombia), an specialized meeting that brings together delegations from Member States, international organizations, experts from the Academia and civil society organizations.

In this frame, Club de Madrid launched the Policy Report “Overcoming Misinformation about Migration and Migrants: A Data-Driven Report on the Positive Impact of Migration on the Economy and Social Development”. This work was coordinated and supervised by former Costa Rican President and Club de Madrid Member Carlos Alvarado Quesada.

With this publication, Club de Madrid aims to reframe the debate on migration, moving away from fear and securitization toward evidence-based cooperation and inclusion.
