As a model whereby member states, international organizations and stakeholders can come together for the shared vision for promotion of health of migrants, conditions that ensure decent work, as well as reduce vulnerabilities in migration, the Joint UN Initiative on Migration and Health in Asia (JUNIMA) ensures effective regional coordination to advocate for access to health for migrants in Asia. IOM is the Secretariat of the JUNIMA Steering Committee.  Moreover, in collaboration with Member States and other partners, IOM launched the Joint Initiative on the Health of Migrants and their families in Mexico and Central America, a regional technical coordination mechanism, to respond to the recommendations of the World Health Assembly 2008 Resolution on the Health of Migrants 61.17.
