This episode was recorded on October 16, 2025, during the virtual session “Migration Governance and Human Security,” which was the third in a series of events organized by ParlAmericas in the lead-up to the Tenth Summit of the Americas. This event brought together parliamentarians, experts, representatives of international organizations, and hemispheric leaders to explore the human security challenges that arise when migration occurs outside regular pathways, as well as the opportunities to strengthen stability by expanding safe and orderly options for mobility. Drawing on insights into emerging migration trends in the Americas and the Caribbean, the dialogue highlighted how these challenges are being addressed within the Inter-American system, and how parliaments can ensure that responses to human mobility promote social cohesion and the protection of the human rights of migrants. Listen to Simone Cecchini, Director of the Latin American and Caribbean Demographic Centre (CELAD) of the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), speak about the current migration trends in the hemisphere, how these might shape policy priorities for countries in the region, and the main contributions that migrants bring to the host communities.For more details about this meeting and the resources mentioned, please visit our webpage dedicated to the activity.
