International Dialogue on Migration
International Dialogue on Migration
The IDM “Red Book Series” captures lessons learned and policy recommendations from each dialogue.
The past decades have witnessed an expansion of inter-governmental and other initiatives to develop joint approaches to migration. IOM’s International Dialogue on Migration (IDM) has held a pioneering role in bringing together all migration stakeholders, at a global level, for free and open discussions on the opportunities and challenges which migration presents.
The IDM is IOM’s principal forum for migration policy dialogue. Founded in 2001 and rooted in IOM’s Constitution and Strategy, the IDM is open to IOM Member and Observer States, as well as international and non-governmental organizations, migrants, and partners from media, academia or the private sector. The IDM provides a space to analyse current and emerging issues in migration governance and to exchange experiences, policy approaches and effective practices.
Every year, the IDM is guided by an overarching theme selected by the IOM membership though a process of informal consultations. The annual theme is elaborated during workshops and concludes at the IOM Council Sessions, bringing together migration policymakers and practitioners from around the world.
