Migrants Day

Submitted by ub on

Regardless of the reasons that compel people to move, migrants and displaced folks represent some of the most vulnerable on earth.

Congratulations to #Argentina, led by their captain Lionel Messi and all the other teams that represented their countries. ⚽️
 
So many teams this year would not be possible without welcoming diversity! About 1 in every 6 players was born in a country other than the one they’re representing, per a Vox analysis. For instance, over 84 percent of France's team are immigrants or children of immigrants.

These marginalized groups are often exposed to abuse and exploitation, have limited access to essential services including healthcare, and are faced with xenophobic attacks and stigma fueled by misinformation.

All people who move from one place to another in order to find work or better living conditions are Migrants.
