GLOBAL INFORMATION

HUB ON MIGRATION

The project underlines the global scale of the crisis by sharing key information on migrants dying along migrato-ry routes around the world. The platform also enables feedback from migrants and

families of the missing.

The project empowers fami-lies of the missing by provid-ing information and guidance, including on identification of the missing and dead, with the aim of affirming the rights and dignity of migrants and

their families.

The Missing Migrants Project is the only global database sharing key data on deceased and missing migrants around the world. The aim is to strengthen advocacy and sup-port a more informed policy

response.
