IOM

Until 80's migrations was seen as a men's issue, but today women have a big percentage of migration worldwide.

Migration is considered without sex, but it is very important to understand that migration impacts differently men and women in the world, that’s why we should take different actionsand conclusions according to the sexes.

Is known that 49% of migrant in the world are women, a big reason to start working for their rights.

A problem that the world is facing now, is that migrants, more of them women, are not having a big quantity of guaranties, what makes them resort to traffickers and make the process insecure and to have more risk to their lives and dignity.

In other countries were is aloud the migration, the treatment is not to good, because it exists discrimination, they are also exposed to physical and sexual abuses and other degrading acts that make the life of a person despised and worth less than other.

The organization is facing a big problem that is the trafficking, this is the main issue concerning the organization, because is the common problem were women get abuse and more lives are lost, this situation is very deplorable, the organization is trying to increase awareness among women telling them not to get convinced that the work becomes so easy, where money is easy to get without working to much and they are making them understand that everything can be achieved by working and believing in themselves.


The IOM is working to get more countries that agree to make migration legal, to get better laws that protect women from abuses not matter if they are illegally in that country, they are working to make women understand that theirs lives are more important and have a bigger value that any work in the world and that they should put themselves first and make them seen as the most important person in the world.
