Key Information

  • The Call to Local Action is open for local and regional governments taking concrete action to uphold the rights and dignity of migrants and refugees, including through pilot projects, policies or campaigns.

  • For the highest impact, we specifically welcome actions that: 

    • Have started as of January 2024 and are either ongoing or will be implemented in the future. 

    • Target both migrants and refugees. 

  • You will need an executive-level (mayor, governor, …) endorsement.

  • Organisations that partner with local governments (e.g. national associations of municipalities, city networks, UN partnerships with cities, … ) can also join.

  • The Call to Local Action is framed around the Marrakesh Mayors Declaration. By joining, your local government will be asked to endorse its principles.

  • By joining, your action will be showcased on the pledge repositories of the UN Migration and Refugee Compacts and the GFMD Platform for Partnerships. You will also be added to the Call to Local Action mailing list and will receive information about upcoming advocacy, funding, and peer learning opportunities.
