The impacts of climate change are happening now, threatening lives and displacing millions globally. We can no longer ignore the urgent need for solutions for those who have to move, those already on the move, and those striving to stay and adapt. We need #ClimateAction now.

#TyphoonYagi left massive displacements and destruction in #VietNam affecting over 74,000 families. IOM is on the ground supporting the government’s humanitarian and recovery efforts. We need #ClimateAction now to prevent further displacement. #ClimateMigration.

Migration is key to the #GlobalGoals. @IOMChief, @Daniels_Ugochi, and Catalina Devandas will be in New York for the UN General Assembly to discuss how human mobility can help drive sustainable development. #UNGA

Deeply alarmed by the military escalation in #Lebanon, which claimed hundreds of lives, incl women & children. Protection of civilians, infrastructure, & welfare must be respected in line with IHL. IOM is on the ground, working with partners to address urgent needs.

Over 90,000 people have been displaced within a week due to the escalating violence in Lebanon. 600 people have been reported dead with nearly 50 being children. IOM is scaling up its humanitarian response but an immediate end to the violence is needed! iom.int/Z5V

Hundreds of civilians in #Lebanon, incl women & children, tragically have lost their lives. Tens of thousands have been displaced. IOM team is responding by distributing essential items to families. All parties must uphold Int'l H. Law & protect civilian life & infrastructure.

This little girl’s hug—pure, simple, and full of joy—touched my heart deeply. I met her today at a transit center in #Ethiopia, where families - including hers - are preparing to start new lives in Canada. Moments like these remind us that love knows no borders.

Our dedicated team at IOM Jordan, together with partners, is tirelessly delivering critical humanitarian aid to the people of #Gaza, where the need is immense. We urgently call for an immediate ceasefire and full humanitarian access to ensure that aid can reach civilians.

UNRWA is irreplaceable. It’s not just an aid agency. It provides education, healthcare, social services and protection for Palestinian refugees. UNRWA promotes human development, dignity and rights until a just and durable solution is found. We must support & protect it.

#ClimateMigration is a reality. At #COP29, it's time to put the most affected people at the center of the climate change discussion. Together, we must address the challenges of climate displacement and harness the power of migration for climate action.

Resilience Joy Hope After 14 years of war and displacement, the people of #Syria are on a new journey, one filled with promise. They need our full support to rebuild their lives and their communities.

As 2024 comes to a close, we reflect on a year of resilience & impact. From providing life-saving assistance to championing dignity for people on the move, IOM has been at the heart of crises and beyond. We will continue to support & uplift communities as we enter the new year.

To my dear brother Dr Mahmoud Abu Nujaila: The world will always remember you and your Dr colleagues in #Gaza. Rest in peace, habibi. I’m so proud of you.

“We did what we could, whoever stays until the end will tell the story”, the words of Dr. Mahmoud Abu Nujaila before he was murdered by an Israeli airstrike on Al Awda hospital in #Gaza, quoted by Palestine’s ambassdor to the UN, Dr. Riyad Mansour, in a special UN Security

After more than a year of unimaginable suffering, the #GazaCeasefire offers a glimmer of hope for families desperate for peace and relief. IOM stands ready to deliver lifesaving aid—but swift, safe, and sustained access is critical to reach those who need it most.

The #GazaCeasefire brings much-needed hope, offering a chance to reunite families and begin rebuilding shattered lives. After months of relentless conflict, the scale of humanitarian needs is staggering and demands urgent, unified efforts and large-scale support at all levels.

Human trafficking is a crime against humanity and can have a long lasting impact on survivors. IOM works with governments to tackle human trafficking and support survivors to reintegrate and rebuild their lives - giving them an opportunity to lead a life of safety and dignity.

I just visited #Gaza — witnessed devastation, shattered lives, and mass destruction like never seen before. People urgently need shelter and essential aid. Ceasefire must hold, and humanitarian access must flow without interruption to serve people in desperate need.

Over 19,000 people forced to flee again since Thursday afternoon, according to the Site Management Cluster. Many with nothing but the clothes on their backs. Nowhere is safe in #Gaza. Let the UN reach people in need. cccmcluster.org/resources/gaza…

Heartbroken by the tragic passing of #diogo_jota. A proud Portuguese migrant & #Liverpool star, he showed how migration enriches football & our communities. He represented the power of diversity, talent, & unity - loved by all football fans around the world. Rest in Peace!
