Behind every number is a person. Every loss is one too many.

For displaced families, what matters most is whether help arrives when it's needed.

IOM provides shelter, protection, and solutions that restore stability and dignity.

Reaching more people, faster, needs flexible and predictable funding. #HumanitarianReset

I am in New York this week for #UNGA81 to join important conversations on migration and work with partners on practical solutions.

Today's discussions focused on how cities can expand regular pathways and support inclusion, as well as our 70-year partnership with Colombia.

Recovery remains fragile. What happens next will shape whether families can rebuild their lives and stay, or risk being displaced again.
