In 1990 the United Nations General Assembly chose December 18 as an ideal date to adopt a resolution on the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families. For this reason, every year on this day, on behalf of the UN, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) uses this anniversary, renamed International Migrants Day, to raise awareness about the fundamental contribution guaranteed almost everywhere by the hundreds of millions of immigrant citizens, as well as highlighting the dramatic situation in which the so-called internally displaced people are forced to live. Storytellers for Peace have decided to celebrate this important anniversary with their new video. In order of appearance: Barry Stewart Mann (narrator, educator, actor and author, USA) Martha Niño (author, marketer, speaker, motivator and storyteller, Mexico) Alessandro Ghebreigziabiher (author, playwright, storyteller, theater actor and director, founder
