This year marks a decade since IOM presented the benchmark report, Migrant Health for the Benefit of All, to the Eighty-eighth Session of the International Organization for Migration (IOM) Council in 2004. This report brings the migration health agenda into the spotlight, highlighting the interdependent and evolving complexities between migration and health for the first time. In 10 years, a series of milestones have emerged, and it is pertinent to take stock of these achievements, remaining challenges and opportunities ahead.IOM has provided quality health assistance to migrants since the Organization’s creation in 1951. Looking backwards, the recognition of migration health as an area of global health coincided with the evolving scope of the work performed by IOM in the field of health. Over the decades, IOM’s health activities have evolved and expanded in response to the changing needs of migrants and governments and the diverse contexts in which migration occurs.
