Abstract
Abstract This chapter examines Objective 1 of the GCM, which champions data collection to inform evidence-based migration policy. While expanding evidence collection and use in the migration context, the Objective’s framing is narrow and may overshadow the human rights arising from data collection. By assessing how the Objective’s drafting restricted this focus and the applicable international law framework, the chapter shows that Objective 1’s sole focus on the right to privacy and data protection is insufficient. By not explicitly anchoring its actions in the full spectrum of human rights, the Objective fails to adequately guard against the significant risks of data analytics, such as discriminatory profiling and the securitization of migration. The chapter concludes that a legally sound interpretation and implementation of Objective 1 must be governed by the entirety of international human rights obligations.
