Mission and objectives

Créée en 1951, l'Organisation internationale pour les migrations (OIM) est la principale organisation intergouvernementale dans le domaine de la migration et s'engage à respecter le principe selon lequel une migration humaine et ordonnée profite aux migrants et à la société. L'OIM fait partie du système des Nations Unies, en tant qu'organisation apparentée. L'OIM soutient les migrants dans le monde entier, en élaborant des réponses efficaces à la dynamique changeante de la migration et, à ce titre, elle est une source clé de conseils sur les politiques et pratiques migratoires. L'organisation travaille dans des situations d'urgence, en développant la résilience de toutes les personnes en mouvement, et en particulier celles qui se trouvent en situation de vulnérabilité, ainsi qu'en renforçant les capacités des gouvernements à gérer toutes les formes et tous les impacts de la mobilité. L'Organisation est guidée par les principes inscrits dans la Charte des Nations unies, notamment la défense des droits de l'homme pour tous. Le respect des droits, de la dignité et du bien-être des migrants reste primordial.
