More than 150 UN members adopt global migration pact



More than 150 countries adopted the United Nations Global Migration Pact on Monday in Marrakech (Morocco)

The non-binding pact seeks to better manage migration in a safe and orderly manner.


The document still needs to be the subject of a final ratification vote on 19 December at the United Nations General Assembly in New York.

Some countries announced their withdrawal or the freezing of their decision after approving the text on 13 July in New York.
