This article presents a short version of the Position Statement on the Migrant Crisis around the World (1), signed by the World Association of Cultural Psychiatry under the Congress: Global. Challenges & Cultural Psychiatry: "Natural Disasters, Conflict, Insecurity, Migration and Spirituality", held in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico, from 29 October to 2 November 2015. The main issue addressed by the statement is the current World Migration Crisis caused by several reasons, including an increase in the armed conflict and violence acts present in the Middle East and in Africa as the source of massive forced displacements to Europe which adds to the dramatic reality of long-term migration of Latin America to North America. In this short version of the statement several factors of the current migration situation in Europe, the Americas, Asia and Africa will be discussed in order to identify common and distinctive factors and begin to take actions to address this situation.
