Model International Mobility Convention: An Inter-American System of human rights reflection on the non-criminalization principle

SUMMARY

This paper aims at providing an Inter-American reflection on the Model International Mobility Convention (MIMC). First, it offers an introductory overview of the MIMC. Next, it analyzes the drafter’s background, and the Convention references to assess a perspective of States members of the Inter-American System of human rights was considered. The paper claims the need for a participatory assessment of scholars that provide an Inter-American view. Finally, it suggests some additions to the MIMC regarding the principle of non-criminalization of migration, based mainly on Brazilian law and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights jurisprudence. Other Inter-American contributions are also relevant and need to be the object of further studies.
