 As the world faces multiple crises, the STG Summit will be a moment of truth and reckoning for the international community. Human mobility in all its dimensions is essential to our efforts to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity. We see it every day and everywhere. People on the move are part of the solution. They are a cornerstone of development, innovation, prosperity and also progress. And yet the contributions that migrants and displaced populations can and do make are still entered in many ways. At IOM we believe in the power of well-managed human mobility in order to accelerate progress and to be a central element of the rescue plan for the sustainable development goals. But for that we need bold commitments and transformative actions to extend the social protection and universal health coverage to all, to further develop safe and regular migration pathways, to reduce remittances transaction costs, to listen to and include migrants voices into national and local development plans, to invest in their skills development and recognize their qualifications and competencies, to reduce the digital access gap for people on the move and to invest in means to address loss and damages, reduce conflict and climate induced displacement. The global compact for safe orderly and regular migration and the secretary general's action agenda on internal displacement are in our view blueprints to support that critical transformation. We need action and we need it now.
