Global Route-Based Migration Programme - 2025 Annual Report
The 2025 Annual Report of the Global Route-Based Migration Programme highlights the work of 66 National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies across Africa, Europe, the Middle East and North Africa, and the Americas, delivering humanitarian assistance and promoting the safety and dignity of people on the move along some of the world’s most complex migration routes. In 2025, the Global Programme reached over 1.17 million people, including more than 1 million people on the move, through 143 Humanitarian Service Points and other services. Amid shifting migration dynamics, funding constraints, and a growing trend towards returns, the report showcases how the IFRC network adapted its operations, strengthened cross-border cooperation, and advanced humanitarian diplomacy. It also features case studies from Colombia, Lebanon, Chad, Europe, and Montenegro, illustrating efforts to improve access to support, reinforce local capacities, and influence policy and practice along migration routes.
