The fourth round of negotiations on the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular
Migration was a critical moment to raise the inclusion of regular pathways into the
Compact negotiations and text. This internal civil society workshops aimed to bring together
migrant networks, trade unions and allies to discuss the challenges and opportunities of
labour migration pathways and to develop a common strategy and concrete advocacy.
