Children on the move face severe risks, yet reliable definition and data for protection is lacking. To address this gap, Idac (a cross-sectoral global coalition jointly led by Eurostat, Iom, Oecd, Unhcr and Unicef), released this publication, offering essential definitions, data, and practices. Three isometric infographic illustrations are created to define, distinguish and explain the various situations and statuses of children on the move. Standardizing migration terms is crucial for accurately identifying and supporting these children, ensuring evidence based policies for their wellbeing.
