Government representatives from Latin America and the Caribbean committed themselves today to implementing the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration and ensuring that migration be an option, rather than an obligation, at the closing session of the regional review meeting on implementation of the Compact, which was co-organized by the International Organization for Migration (IOM), in its capacity as Coordinator of the United Nations Network on Migration, and the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC).
