History

If you are new to the NGO Committee on Migration (CoM), or are simply curious to learn more about the CoM, we encourage you to read the chapter, “Doing What Matters: The NGO Committee on Migration,” (published and copyrighted by Elsevier, Inc.). This background piece, written by Eva Sandis, Chair Emerita of the CoM, and John K Bingham, provides a succinct history of our committee, an overview of our advocacy priorities, and examples of our engagement with the negotiation of migration policy, such as the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration.
