WHAT WE DO

ICMH works with governments, UN agencies, NGOs and all other parties interested in improving the health and welfare of people affected by migration, be it economically or politically motivated

ICMH research

ICMH develops databases and information that can provide the evidence on which policies and programs can be constructed to promote and protect the health and welfare of people on the move, the people they leave behind and those they come into contact with as they move

ICMH situation assessments and evaluation

ICMH undertakes rapid situation assessments and formulates responses in natural and man-made disasters that displace people. It develops and implements monitoring and evaluation of evolving conditions and the impact interventions have on the health and welfare of displaced people

ICMH training

ICMH views training as a way of strengthening national and international capacities in health and migration planning and management. It organises training courses for humanitarian relief workers, UN personnel, health practitioners, public health professionals, policy makers/planners and military and peacekeeping forces

ICMH policy formulation and advocacy

ICMH formulates migration and health/welfare policy options based on evidence and advocates for these policies on behalf of all stakeholders. It also works with its partners to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of policies once they are implemented
