The Migration Youth & Children Platform (MYCP) is thrilled to announce a new initiative aimed at elevating youth voices and perspectives in regional and international migration policy. This project is in line with the Global Compact for Migration (GCM) process, ensuring that young people are at the forefront of migration discussions and decisions.
