#UNDay reminds us that global challenges demand shared solutions. When we work together, migration delivers, creating opportunity, resilience, and dignity for all. This is what the @UN was built for: shared action, shared progress.

Morocco shows what’s possible when migration is managed with humanity, vision, and partnership. 🇲🇦 From youth empowerment to dignified border practices, Morocco and IOM are turning policy into opportunity. Migration works, when people are at the center.

Behind every statistic is a child with dreams. At Bayti Association in Casablanca, I met young migrants whose lives have been transformed through support from @UNmigration. Let’s invest in safe pathways and inclusive services so every child on the move can thrive.

In Casablanca, I met migrants whose stories reflect both courage and hope. Through @UNmigration Morocco’s work, we strive to ensure access to rights, protection, and dignity for all those on the move. Migration is first and foremost a human story.

Inspired. Young Moroccans and migrants came together in Casablanca for the Africa Cup of Nations for Unity and Inclusion 🇲🇦. Through sport, they’re building bridges, strengthening civic life, and unlocking new opportunities, for all.

Resilience isn’t built after disaster. It’s built before. On the International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction, we call for bold investment in mobility as a pathway to resilience. Because when people can move safely, they can survive, adapt, and thrive.

In emergencies, mental health support saves lives. When people lose everything, they must not lose access to care. We must protect the services that help people heal, recover, and rebuild.

Migration is about dignity, freedom, and hope. At @VillanovaU’s Refugees and Migrants in Our Common Home conference, I highlighted how universities are vital partners, shaping humane policies, expanding access to education, and building inclusive communities.

Witnessing a disembarkation in Lampedusa was profoundly moving. Behind every arrival are people, not numbers. We must continue protecting lives, uphold dignity and stop smugglers from exploiting human desperation.
