In his speech, the Chief of Service said that especially in recent years, migration has become increasingly pressing issue on the global agenda. He noted that it is an everlasting and complex process caused by various reasons, including poverty, inequality, climate change and included conflicts, which are the topics of the panel.

Vusal Huseynov emphasized the importance of accepting migration not as a problem, but on the contrary, as a means of sustainable development for both the country of origin and destination, and spoke about the important benefits of this process. Later, chief of the Service said that our country has witnessed the problems caused by forced migration as a result of the occupation of our lands for 30 years and in 2020, after the liberation of our lands from occupation, the rights of internally displaced persons displaced from their homelands to return to their home were restored, which created new challenges related to dignified return and reintegration processes.

Then, exchange of views on the topic was conducted.

It should be noted that the former heads of state and government of the Republics of Ecuador, Latvia and Moldova, the former Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Colombia, the former Director General of ISESCO and the Secretary General of the Council of Muslim Elders took part in panel discussions.
