Strengthening Implementation of the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCM): Youth Policy Priorities for the 2026 International Migration Review Forum (IMRF)
The International Migration Review Forum (IMRF) 2026 Progress Declaration represents a critical opportunity to address these gaps and strengthen implementation of the GCM.This paper outlines MYCP’s policy priorities and general recommendations to ensure that migration governance is youth-centred, rights-based, and responsive to current global challenges. Strategic Priority: Recognition of Youth as Stakeholders
MYCP's Youth Statement: A major call to action from the Global Youth Consultation
Children and young migrants from across the world set out what they live through and what they demand, from access to health and education to climate mobility and an end to child immigration detention. The future is ours to build, together.
Assessing Child and Youth Rights in the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration
Strengthening alignment with the UNCRC requires the development of clearer procedural standards, child-specific accountability mechanisms, and sustained investment in systems that ensure access to services, protection, and justice. Crucially, it also requires recognising children and youth as active participants in migration governance, with the right and capacity to shape the policies and processes that affect their lives. Without such shifts, the gap between commitment and practice will remain, and migrant children will continue to face systemic protection deficits.
GCM Youth Consultations Report 2024–25: what 812 young migrants told the UN
MYCP's GCM Youth Consultations reached 812 young people on the move in 2024–25, nearly three times the target of 300, through 23 sessions in five world regions with 65 partner organisations. This monitoring, evaluation and learning report shows what worked, where representation fell short, and what the next consultation cycle should change.
YOUTH PRIORITIES FOR GCM IMPLEMENTATION: International Migration Review Forum 2026 Advocacy Brief
To further inform the Progress Declaration’s outcome, MYCP is proud to present its advocacy brief for the 2026 IMRF. Grounded in the voices and experiences of young migrants globally, through its GCM Youth Consultation process which were held between 2024-25 in every region of the world and including over 800+ young people, and informed by MYCP’s 2025 Global Youth Report on the State of Migration, this strategy outlines our key policy recommendations to support the implementation of the GCM in line with youth priorities. Each section corresponds to the thematic chapters of MYCP’s Global Youth Report.
