Organizational Context and Scope: 

Established in 1951, IOM is a Related Organization of the United Nations, and as the leading UN  organization in the field of migration works closely with governmental, intergovernmental and  non-governmental partners. IOM is dedicated to promoting humane and orderly migration, for  the benefit of all. It does so by providing services and advice to governments and migrants. 

The International Organization for Migration (IOM) in Tunisia’s Migrant Protection and  Assistance (MPA) unit focuses on the well-being and protection of migrants in Tunisia through  the provision of tailored assistance and interventions that focus on sustainable, long-term  solutions that address migrant vulnerabilities and the root causes of migration. MPA and its  counterparts in other IOM offices around the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) assist more  than forty thousand migrants per year through the assisted voluntary return and reintegration  (AVRR) programme, various forms of humanitarian and protection assistance, as well as  technical support to stakeholders through capacity building, advocacy and awareness raising.  

IOM Tunisia works to enhance the capacity, knowledge and dialogue on migration and related  management and policymaking among states, civil society and other regional stakeholders.  Inter-ministerial and cross-border cooperation are pursued to create cohesive, multi-state  approaches to transnational crimes such as migrant smuggling and trafficking in persons and  increased communication on access to services and the provision of protection and inter-state  assistance to vulnerable groups through programmes like IOM’s AVRR and localized assistance  activities. Part of these efforts involved the improvement and the preparedness of relevant  actors for responses to mobility dimensions of humanitarian crises, particularly addressing the  needs of vulnerable migrants and other affected communities. This is part of IOM’s global  efforts to ensure safe, orderly and regular migration in full respect of the human rights of all  migrants such that migration is beneficial to both migrant and host communities.
