As part of the IOM - UN Migration-funded Managing Migration through Development (MMDP) 2.0 Project, the IOM Nigeria team led by Acting Chief of Mission, Pace Paola, visited the Caritas Nigeria's male shelter in #Benin City yesterday, November 25. The visit aimed to assess recent IOM-supported modifications, including a recreational area, ramp construction, and internal partition renovations, all designed to raise the shelter to operational standards. During the visit, the IOM team commended Caritas Nigeria for maintaining a well-kept facility. The team also discussed strategies for #sustainability and enhanced #collaboration. Recommendations included improving #referral systems among #shelter providers and finding ways to sustain operations during financial constraints. The IOM team, which included Arshad Khan, Head of the Benin Sub Office, was warmly received by Barr. Onomen Oriakhi, Lead of Caritas Nigeria's regional office in Benin City, and other staff members. #SDG #SDGs #Migration #Safemigration #managingmigration #SDG #Migration #Safemigration #managingmigrationthroughdevelopment
