World Meteorological Organization Geneva, 30 September 2023
When it comes to the increasingly critical phenomenon of climate migration, Africa represents a ābig challengeā for the world, according to Petteri Taalas, secretary-general of the UNās World Meteorological Organization (WMO).
An Intergovernmental Conference was held on 10-11 December 2018 in Marrakech, Morocco where 164 UN Member States adopted the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration. On 19 December, the United Nations General Assembly officially endorsed the Global Compact, described by UN chief António Guterres as a āroadmap to prevent suffering and chaosā.
