Equitable Growth in the 21st Century: Addressing Migration Challenges through G20 Multilateralism

In recent years, a few G20 countries have witnessed some of the largest inflows of migrants globally. While migration has enabled millions to seek employment in different countries, this has typically been characterised by inequality. Given that the G20 agenda seeks to ensure just and equitable growth for all, this policy brief identifies three dilemmas the group must address to achieve this goal: forced migration, inhumane working conditions, and the lack of social integration of migrants. To tackle these issues, the brief recommends reforming global bodies such as the International Labour Organization, integrating international frameworks in domestic policies, encouraging multilateral cooperation in managing migration, and capacity building through civil society.
