ANNUAL REPORT 2023
2023
Foreword
Amy Pope
IOM Director General
I am pleased to present the IOM Annual Report 2023, my first annual report since I became Director General on 1 October 2023.
I commenced my mandate as Director General with a focus to ensure IOM is fit for purpose and continues to deliver on the promise of migration to support those most vulnerable, as part of my commitment to both Member States and the beneficiaries that IOM serves.
The new IOM Strategic Plan 2024-2028 was developed with this in mind, to set the course for us for the next five years. The IOM Strategic Plan is one of a series of interlinked initiatives, started in 2023, which are designed to ensure that IOM is acting in a strategic, joined-up, data driven and efficient manner.
