Under the Assisted Voluntary Return and Reintegration from the Netherlands (AVRR-NL) project staff from the IOM offices in Iran and Somalia visited the Netherlands in December 2016.
The one week program included meetings with migrants at different reception centres, as well as meetings with the respective embassies, DT&V, MFA and network partners on the operational level.
The working visit aimed to give International Organisation for Migration, IOM’s main stakeholders in the Netherlands the opportunity to learn more about the realities related to AVRR in Iran and Somalia through first-hand information provision.
More of such visits will be organized throughout the year 2017 under the AVRR-NL project.
