Stories of Return and Reintegration

The EU-IOM Joint Initiative for Migrant Protection and Reintegration: The Gambia is part of a regional initiative covering and closely cooperating with 26 countries in North Africa, the Horn of Africa and the Sahel and Lake Chad region. It aims to facilitate the sustainable reintegration of returning migrants and to contribute to strengthening migration governance. The Joint Initiative’s inclusive approach involves key stakeholders, such as migrants’ associations, community-based organizations and local communities to ensure that, in the future, Gambians will choose to migrate using regular means as a matter of choice, rather than necessity. IOM works closely with the Government of The Gambia, particularly the Ministry of Interior, which has the mandate to lead on migration governance in the country. 

This booklet tells the stories of migrants returning and reintegrating into The Gambia.
