- Abstract
-
Migration can be defined as the human movement from one place to another. Article 13 of UDHR (Universal Declaration of Human Rights) guarantees freedom of movement. To curb COVID-19, many nations and international organisations restricted free movement. Governance of ‘migration’ became important in the pandemic-stricken world. This article from a multilevel governance perspective examines the policies/ initiatives on governing migration to contain COVID-19 at different levels. For this, the paper assesses the WHO’s directives, Government of India’s measures and steps taken by the regional government of Kerala to address the issue.
