Permanent Forum on the Migrant and Refugee Population
The Permanent Forum on the Migrant and Refugee Population is a body developed since late 1995, in which the Office of the Ombudsman influences the Technical Secretariat. This forum is characterized by being an inter-institutional, intersectorial and multidisciplinary space composed of state institutions, government institutions, civil society organizations, international organizations and academic institutions whose mandate, competencies and interest are related to the theme of migration. The initiative is carried out as a permanent model of organized work and the convergence of different social and institutional actors that analyze and generate comprehensive proposals on migration issues. The Permanent Forum on the Migrant and Refugee Population is a unique and permanent forum involving approximately 65 people representing various organizations.
