De Internationale Organisatie voor Migratie is een intergouvernementele organisatie met een hoofdkantoor in Genève. De organisatie is in 1951 opgericht als Intergovernmental Committee for European Migration (ICEM), om ontheemden in Europa in de naoorlogse jaren terug te begeleiden naar huis. IOM is uitgegroeid tot de belangrijkste internationale, onafhankelijke organisatie ter wereld op het gebied van migratie. Uitgangspunt voor IOM is dat humane en ordelijke migratie zowel migranten als de gehele samenleving ten goede komt. IOM bevordert samen met haar partners ordelijke en humane migratie, de internationale samenwerking op het gebied van migratie, het uitvoeren van initiatieven en projecten op het gebied van migratie en het geven van humanitaire hulp aan migranten die in nood verkeren waaronder vluchtelingen en mensen die op de vlucht zijn binnen de eigen landsgrenzen (ontheemden). IOM houdt zich bezig met de vier brede terreinen op het gebied van migratie management: Migratie en Ontwikkeling, het faciliteren van migratie, het reguleren van migratie en gedwongen migratie. Tevens is IOM betrokken bij overkoepelende internationale thema's, zoals het bevorderen van het internationale migratierecht, debatten over internationaal beleid, de bescherming van migrantenrechten, migratie en gezondheid en migratie en gender.

People move for a variety of reasons: to seek a better life, reunite with families, and to seek safety. Irrespective of the reason, migrants contribute to the host communities in meaningful manner, driving cultural exchange and spurring economic growth and innovation. #EveryStep

Talking about sexual and gender-based violence #SGBV is never easy. Survivors of such traumatic experiences can feel alone in their pain, even though the violence they endured is never their fault. Migrant Ambassadors such as Haifaa support SGBV survivors on their path towards a brighter future. As cultural mediators, they bridge cultural differences between survivors and healthcare providers in the Netherlands. This is part of the SAMEN – IOM Nederland project implemented by IOM and Dokters van de Wereld Nederland, with support from the European Union. 🔗 More info: https://lnkd.in/ewEwVh3W #16Days, #NoExcuse, #SupportingSurvivorsSavesLives IOM The Netherlands IOM Europe and Central Asia
