Migrant Protection and Assistance

Through national and international cooperation, IOM strengthens the access to, and provision of migrant-oriented services including healthcare and works with local population and relevant stakeholders towards a greater realization of the rights of migrants in Georgia. IOM supports the assisted voluntary return and reintegration (AVRR) for Georgian nationals from 30 countries and enhances their sustainable reintegration in Georgia through provision of reintegration assistance at the individual level in the economic, social, and psychosocial dimensions. IOM also supports the revitalization of communities of return to provide an environment more favourable to reintegration of returnees and to support the local population in areas dependent on international mobility, in addition to building capacities of relevant stakeholders at all levels of governance in return and reintegration. IOM also supports foreign nationals in returning from Georgia to and reintegrating in their countries of origin.
