ABOUT THIS COMMITTEE
The International Organization for Migration (IOM) aims to facilitate the orderly and humane management of migration, foster international cooperation on migration issues, and provide humanitarian aid to migrants, including refugees and internally displaced persons. This committee will challenge delegates to critically address two key topics: A) Ensuring the protection of refugees' and migrants' rights, focusing on access to essential services, legal safeguards, and integration opportunities, and B) Examining the link between migration and development, particularly the role of migration in fostering economic growth, sustainable development, and poverty alleviation. This is a single-delegate committee.

Amanda Carvalho (she/her)
Amanda is a sophomore from Nairobi, Kenya, majoring in Economics with a double minor in Dramatic Art and Mathematics. She fell in love with Kenyan MUN in the 7th grade, and has not stopped participating since, from organizing international conferences to CIRA’s accessibility-oriented branch, moMUNtum. When she’s not in a theater production or sweating on a volleyball court, you’ll find her dancing to any music she can get her hands on! Her favorite pastimes include writing incoherent poetry, doing anything at the beach, and having picnics with her friends. She could not be more excited to contribute to UNCMUNC XV, and cannot wait to be enriched and inspired by conference delegates.
