national human rights institutions, the International Red Cross and Red Crescent

45. We welcome the decision of the Secretary-General to establish a United Nations
network on migration to ensure effective and coherent system-wide support for
implementation, including the capacity-building mechanism, as well as follow-up and
review of the Global Compact, in response to the needs of Member States. In this
regard, we note that:
(a)
IOM will serve as the coordinator and secretariat of the network;
(b) The network will fully draw from the technical expertise and experience
of relevant entities within the United Nations system;
(c) The work of the network will be fully aligned with existing coordination
mechanisms and the repositioning of the United Nations development system.
46. We request the Secretary-General, drawing on the network, to report to the
General Assembly on a biennial basis on the implementation of the Global Compact,
the activities of the United Nations system in this regard, as well as the functioning
of the institutional arrangements.
47. Further recognizing the important role of State-led processes and platforms at
the global and regional levels in advancing the international dialogue on migration,
we invite the Global Forum on Migration and Development, regional consultative
processes and other global, regional and subregional forums to provide platforms to
exchange experiences on the implementation of the Global Compact, share good
practices on policies and cooperation, promote innovative approaches, and foster
multi-stakeholder partnerships around specific policy issues.
