Global Alliance for the Advancement of refugees and Migrants is a civil rights organization in Uganda formed in 2019 as an interracial endeavor to advance justice, protection and empowerment of refugees, Stateless persons, asylum seekers and migrants (persons of interest) by a group of civil rights activists. Global Alliance for the Advancement of refugees and Migrants is incorporated in Uganda under reg. No. 80020002958193.
Our Mission is “to ensure the political, educational, social, and economic equality of rights of all persons and to eliminate all forms of injustice and discrimination by ensuring that refugees and migrants access rights to which they are entitled to under the international law”.
The vision of Global Alliance for the Advancement of refugees and Migrants is to see “a well-led society in which all individuals irrespective of origin or race, live life in all its Fullness, are valued, protected, cared for, and given the opportunities to realize their full potential”.
As an organisation, our vision is based on,
the fundamental right of all persons to reside in their own country. In this respect, Global Alliance for the Advancement of refugees and Migrants fully concurs with the Global Commission on International Migration, which States that, “women, men and children should be able to realize their potential, meet their needs, exercise their human rights and fulfil their aspirations in their country of origin, and hence migrate out of choice, rather than necessity.” The asylum-migration nexus which we believe must be conclusively and sustainably addressed by the local and international community constitute a particularly egregious violation of this principle.
Every day, all over the world, people make one of the most difficult decisions in their lives: to leave their homes in search of a safer, better life. In recent years, the movement of people from one country and continent to another has grown significantly in scale and scope. The world’s population is increasingly mobile, with women, men and children leaving their own country and taking up residence elsewhere for a variety of different reasons. Violence, war, hunger, extreme poverty, unemployment, sexual orientation, or consequences of climate change or other natural disasters are forcing children, women and men to take this next step. Such persons take up the status of “refugees, migrants or asylum seekers”
For these so many reasons, people seek to rebuild their lives in a different country: get a job, an education or investment opportunity. Others are forced to flee persecution or human rights violations such as torture. Millions flee from armed conflicts or other crises or violence. Some no longer feel safe and might have been targeted just because of who they are or what they do or believe – for example, for their ethnicity, religion, sexuality or political opinions.
