Cécile Frobert, Deputy Director of the Democratic Governance Mission, Directorate of Global Affairs, French Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs 1 Part 1 - 11:00 - 12:30 Connecting Global Policy Agendas to Promote Effective Solutions for Climate and Human Mobility: The Case of Rising Nations Initiative In this session, the Global Centre for Climate Mobility (GCCM) presents a proposal to confront. [...] Representatives from Azerbaijan, the incoming Chair of COP 29, and Colombia, the incoming Chair of GFMD 2024-2025 engage in this discussion that puts at centre stage the importance of building resilience for low-lying island countries, fostering solutions where the voices and cultures of communities affected by climate change can be preserved and thrive. [...] Miguel Eduardo Ruiz Boter, Third Secretary – Permanent Mission of Colombia (as GFMD Chair 2024-2025 ) We have the evidence and field-tested solutions: what needs to be done to bring solutions at scale and unleash the power of migration The evidence around the contribution of migrants and migration to development is unambiguous: migration is, and has been for centuries, a cornerstone of development. [...] What could be the role of stakeholders that have a capacity to bring solutions at scale – such as Multilateral Development Banks – to capitalize on the breadth of evidence available, and on field-tested solutions? This thought-provoking pitch will draw from the IOM Flagship Report and from the M4SD global programme results. [...] Accurate and timely sex-disaggregated data and gender statistics on migration are critical for understanding the specific situations, needs and challenges of migrant women and men, and for shaping migration policy.
