The 2010 Global Consultation on Migrant Health was convened as a result of the 2008 World Health Assembly Resolution on the Health of Migrants, which asks Member States to take action on migrant-sensitive health policies and practices, and directs WHO to promote migrant health on the international agenda, in collaboration with other relevant organizations and sectors. Accordingly, WHO and IOM, in collaboration with the Ministry of Health and Social Policy of Spain, held a Global Consultation on Migrant Health on 3–5 March 2010 in Madrid to: • take stock of actions taken since the endorsement of the Resolution; • reach consensus on priority areas and strategies; • identify the elements of an operational framework to assist Member States and stakeholders in making further progress on the issue. This consultation report offers a summary of the issues discussed at the consultation and presents an outline for an operational framework to guide action by key stakeholders.
