Here are 5 facts you may not know about #FamilyRemittances

[Dyane Epstein @EpsteinDyane]

Remittances are so important, and #Covid_19 is having a harsh impact

[IOM Vienna Regional Office @IOM_ROVienna]

It's International Day on Family #Remittances when we mark the contribution made to development by #migrants sending home money. But in 2020, #COVID19 has plunged remittances into crisis. See our special web page at https://t.co/bfvuRuDtln

We are relieved that the 425 migrants on board the Captain Morgan vessels have finally disembarked in Malta.

Looking forward to the establishment of a swift, predictable disembarkation mechanism, and more reliable, shared support to Mediterranean states.
