The path to safety is to seek entry at the designated border entrance, and to apply for entry in GOOD FAITH. Not to sneak in at a non-entry point, falsify your ID, lie to people, and commit various crimes. It doesn’t require a TED talk. It’s dirt simple.

I assume you had the good fortune of being born in a country with some semblance of economic opportunity when so many do not. Do you think people immigrate illegally out of laziness? No. It is out of survival. Unfortunately the poorer you are, the less likely a country will take you on legally. To leave one’s family, community and country to come to a place where they are outsiders, doing low paid work and and risking being identified by authorities is utterly unpleasant, but is done out of necessity to put food on the table for their families. I am not saying I support illegal immigration, but for you to say that it is a “simple matter” reflects an undeniable lack of insight from your end.

@@ChrisC30 The talk isn’t about cross-border migration. It’s about people who migrate within their countries and lack basic social protection. Each country is entitled to its own border policy, but surely we can all have empathy for the human situation even if we do not want our countries/livelihoods to be stressed because of it.

I am all for helping others build infrastructure in their own countries. We only cause more problems for all when we overload others that are doing OK (and this overload ensures we all fall).
All countries do not have to same resources, same beliefs about what is most important and nor do they operate on the same economy (including healthcare).
Help people right where they are, never forcing, always input from the people, who ate the “owners”.

You can ignore the problems of the world all you want, but if you have a heart you’d want to lift people out of poverty and improve their lives. Imagine if you were a migrant. Would you really be able to ignore their pleas for help when you have been through the same thing?
@VarunBehani

The talk focuses on people who are excluded from basic social protections within their own countries. As soon as the word “migration” comes in, people – especially in the west given issues they are facing – associate it with cross-border migration. The underlying conditions are often similar i.e., economic distress. But a lot of this is exacerbated by climate change as water and land resources become less productive. So, issues these folks did not cause increase their distress > they migrate due to lack of choice. The strange thing is that if we did not have as much climate change and people within countries were socially protected, that would also reduce international forced migration.
