 COVID-19 poses severe challenges to human migration. While it would turn to the pre-pandemic levels of mobility, maybe a while away, several countries are now seeking ways to ease some restrictions. But how do we do this? While minimizing the risk of further outbreaks and how do we protect public health while resuming socioeconomic activities? With the impact of COVID-19 on human mobility, we are constantly looking at the emerging evidence, identifying key challenges and proposing solutions. Migrants' engagement and access to information is crucial, as is enhancing health systems and border health capacities, including at airports, seaports and land border crossings. Support is needed to strengthen international collaboration and follow evidence-based contract tracing, quarantine and continuity of care for migrants. Health assessments before departure and the mapping of people's movement to predict health trends are key to restore confidence in migration and international travel, as countries may face multiple waves of the pandemic. IOM has been a long-standing partner on human mobility, working on migration, health and immigration and border management. Going forward, let's envision a world where health security, pandemic preparedness and universal health coverage principles are completely integrated with travel, immigration and border management policies, while respecting human rights and promoting health for all.
