The Global Commission on International Migration (GCIM) is a commission established and launched by the United Nations Secretary-General along with several involved governments on December 9, 2003 in Geneva. Migration between countries is now considered to have become a major issue all over the world. There have been both positive and negative effects and results of this, some of which are to be improved while others need to be looked into further in order to improve any conditions for all parties involved in International Migration. In line with this acknowledgement, the GCIM aims to take on situations, issues, analysis and studies regarding International Migration and provide a comprehensive response to the countries, the people and components involved. The posting of news and update articles at the GCIM website at www.gcim.org began on January of 2012. This includes a detailed description of the Policy Analysis and Research Program, which helps in understanding what the GCIM is about and what they aim to do and accomplish.
