Abstract
Abstract Objective 7 of the GCM, which addresses migrants in vulnerable situations, is the subject of this chapter. The notion of vulnerability is pervasive throughout the GCM’s text, demonstrating its cross-cutting importance. Objective 7 provides a significant step in recognizing the multifaceted and context-dependent nature of migrant vulnerability. It reinforces human rights standards in this context, including the need for gender-responsive and child-sensitive approaches to vulnerability and the promotion of regularization as a protection tool. Nevertheless, the Objective suffers from a lack of definitional clarity. The failure to define who constitutes a ‘migrant in a vulnerable situation’, coupled with weak language in certain commitments, risks opening to inconsistent implementation and leaves states excessive discretion. The chapter concludes that, without a clearer framework to identify vulnerability, the Objective’s laudable aims may remain aspirational, undermining its potential to provide concrete and uniform protection across all stages of migration.
