“Begin Text”
The Governments of Brazil and the United States of America met in Washington, D.C., on Monday, April 29, 2024, for their first Bilateral Dialogue on the topic of Migration Policies, Humanitarian Issues, and Refugee Protection. The dialogue highlighted our countries` shared goals of advancing access to international protection and safe, orderly, humane, and regular migration.
The delegations shared best practices and identified common opportunities and challenges to their migration and refugee responses. This includes Brazil`s Operation Welcome, which has helped the country receive and integrate over 500,000 Venezuelans since 2018; expanding and strengthening access to regular pathways as a meaningful alternative to irregular migration; a presentation on the Safe Mobility Initiative; responsibility sharing; the importance of supporting host communities, cities and municipalities, civil society, and the private sector in refugee and migrant integration; and ways to advance shared priorities in key multilateral migration and refugee fora.
The historic number of people on the move in the Western Hemisphere requires continued partnership and collaboration. This United States-Brazil Bilateral Dialogue on Migration Policies, Humanitarian Issues, and Refugee Protection reflected our shared recognition that no single country can meet the challenges and opportunities of migration and protection alone. The two governments committed to continued dialogue and future collaboration on this key shared policy priority.
