It is observed every year on 18 December.
What it stands for:
Respecting the rights, dignity, and contributions of migrants
Raising awareness about the challenges immigrants face, such as discrimination, unsafe migration, and exploitation
Promoting unity, inclusion, and cultural diversity
Highlighting the positive economic, social, and cultural impact of migration
The day was declared by the United Nations to remind countries that migrants deserve human rights and protection, regardless of their legal status.
