On this International Human Rights Day, the International Migrants Alliance believes it is necessary to reaffirm a message that each year becomes  more urgent to emphasize: Migrants Rights are Human Rights. Among these rights, which states must recognize and protect, are those related to the dignity, security, equality and freedom of persons. The rights to live, work, move, and seek environments of greater safety and well-being are fundamental human rights, and no government or border should strip people of these protections.
