News: Global Compact for Migration

A "zero draft plus" was issued 5 March 2018 which, according to the co-facilitators, reflects technical updates and clarifications rather than substantive changes. This IISD news story highlights some of the tweaks. (Here is the text of the initial zero draft, for comparison.)
