- Summary
- A delegation of 30 trade unionists organised by Global Unions took part in the GFMD "Civil Society Days" in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, preceding the inter-governmental meeting. The union representatives and other civil society participants expressed concern that, while some improvements had been made this year, there are still insufficient possibilities for their voices to be heard in the inter-governmental processes on migration.
