Measuring the Baseline: How States Hosting the Majority of the World’s Migrants Protect Rights Implicated in the Global Compact

This is an analysis of how the national law of 36 UN Member States hosting about 70 percent of the world’s migrants complied with several key rights implicated by the GCM in 2019. The IMBR Initiative’s Migrant Rights Database (MRD) uses rigorous indicators to evaluate how national law protects a core set of migrants’ rights based on the IMBR.
