Developing the Global Compact on Migration 2016, para. 52
Paragraph
Paragraph text
A number of trade agreements contain clauses relating to the mobility of persons, although they oftentimes refer only to executives and highly skilled expatriates. Such clauses should be expanded to cover migrants at all skills levels and should be inserted in a human rights framework, which would improve their coherence. Such clauses should include rigorous due diligence, monitoring and oversight mechanisms.
Legal status
Non-negotiated soft law
Body
Special Rapporteur on the human rights of migrants
