The Civil Society Action Committee

Platform for global civil society engagement on migration policy and governance

Civil Society Action Committee (AC) members and partners work towards three primary objectives:

Timely and strategic information-sharing on global migration policy and governance. 

Collective and coherent civil society strategising and action.

Increasing and democratising access for civil society engagement at all levels.

The Civil Society Action Committee (AC) is co-convened by the International Council of Voluntary Agencies (ICVA), the NGO Committee on Migration, and the International Catholic Migration Commission (ICMC). The ICMC also houses the AC’s Secretariat, as well as serves as the Global Forum on Migration and Development (GFMD) Civil Society Coordinating Office.
