Paragraph
Human rights of migrants in the post-2015 development agenda 2014, para. 26
- Paragraph text
- In 2013, migrants sent approximately $404 billion in remittances. Migrants who moved from countries with a low human development index to countries with a higher index experienced, on average, a 15-fold increase in income, a doubling in education enrolment rates and a 16-fold reduction in child mortality. If the human rights of migrants are effectively promoted, respected and protected within well-governed migration processes, such development outcomes can be greatly enhanced.

Paragraph
The human rights of migrants on a 2035 agenda for facilitating human mobility 2017, para. 66
- Paragraph text
- Newly arrived migrants could face a variety of challenges in accessing public services, such as health care, education or housing, given their limited command of the local language and their lack of knowledge of the laws and systems of the host country. The enjoyment of such rights by migrants is effectively hampered in the absence of relevant support, such as the provision of language training or free information on relevant laws and regulations. A related concern is the lack of disaggregated indicators on the economic, social and cultural rights of all migrants, which would be useful for adequate policy-making, including on enhancing the accessibility of such services.

Human rights of migrants in the post-2015 development agenda 2014, para. 62
- Paragraph text
- According to article 13 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, the right to education is a universal right. As recognized by Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights in its general comment No. 13, education is the "primary vehicle by which economically and socially marginalized adults and children can lift themselves out of poverty and obtain the means to participate fully in their communities". The Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, in its general recommendation No. 30, has highlighted the need for States to ensure that all migrant children, irrespective of their status, have access to public educational institutions. The Committee on the Rights of the Child, in its general comment No. 9, endorsed the concept of inclusive education as "a set of values, principles and practices that seeks meaningful, effective, and quality education for all students, that does justice to the diversity of learning conditions and requirements not only of children with disabilities, but for all students".
