Ecuador’s New Migration Plan

Ecuador has created a new plan to improve migration in the country. This plan is called the National Implementation Plan 2025–2029, and it follows the ideas of the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCM). The main goal of the plan is to make migration safer, more organized, and more fair for everyone. The plan has three main parts. The first part is economic inclusion. This means helping migrants find jobs and become part of the economy. Ecuador wants migrants to have better opportunities and to live more stable lives. The second part is social inclusion. This part focuses on giving migrants access to education, health care, and social services. With these services, migrants can feel safer and more supported in their new environment. The third part is migration governance. This part helps government institutions work together more effectively. It also aims to collect better information about migration, so the country can make smart and informed decisions. The plan will be applied at both national and local levels. Many experts believe that Ecuador’s plan can be a model for other countries. The government worked together with local communities, civil society, and international organizations to prepare this plan. In conclusion, Ecuador’s new migration plan is an important step for the country. It supports migrants, increases safety, and helps them join society more easily. The plan also shows how countries can manage migration in a respons!ble and human-centered way.
