Abstract
Abstract This chapter analyses the increasingly recognized role of non-state actors and local authorities in implementing the GCM. It stresses that actors such as migrants and diaspora organizations, civil society, academia, faith-based groups, the private sector, and the media are indispensable to effective governance. The chapter highlights how migrants themselves contribute practical knowledge, narratives, and counter-hegemonic perspectives, though their participation remains underutilized. The chapter also underscores the pivotal role of cities as first responders of migration, often compensating for inadequate national policies, and documents their transnational networking through fora such as UCLG and the Global Parliament of Mayors. While cooperation with non-state actors remains uneven, the chapter argues that their involvement is essential to realizing the GCM’s people-centred and human rights-based vision. The analysis concludes that the GCM’s inclusive stakeholder framework represents both an innovation and a challenge, demanding more consistent engagement from states and stronger mechanisms to amplify non-state actors’ contributions.
