including on identification of
the missing and dead, with
the aim of affirming the rights
and dignity of migrants and
their families.
The project underlines the
global scale of the crisis by
sharing key information on
migrants dying along migratory routes around the world.
The platform also enables
feedback from migrants and
families of the missing.
