"The Covid-19 pandemic has shown that the global system governing migration may
not be sustainable. Temporary migration schemes including those for seasonal
agriculture workers or those allowing for construction and care work no longer
function when people’s mobility is hampered because of a rapidly circulating
and dangerous virus.
We have also seen that migrants, refugees and immigrant minorities have been
more severely affected by the virus and have had poorer access to treatments
and vaccinations.
So should we reconsider the rights of citizens versus the rights of residents
or temporary workers? The pandemic has exposed several of the contradictions of
our domestic and global migration governance as well as the limitations of
integration policies."
