Maiken, a UN Volunteer 🇸🇪, Fully Funded by @Sida, worked with @IOMGeorgia to support the sustainable reintegration of returned migrants in the country.
She explains what the assignment involved and what she learned. 👏

Traffickers thrive in the gaps between systems.
Closing those gaps means cooperation between labor authorities, border officials, law enforcement, technology companies and consular services.
Together, we can prevent trafficking and protect those at risk.

Every child deserves the chance to dream, not to survive exploitation.
In honour of #WorldDayAgainstTrafficking, stand with children at risk and help #EndHumanTrafficking.
Reintegration happens where people rebuild their lives— in communities. With support from @SwissDevCoop #IOMGeorgia gathered national and local stakeholders at Georgia’s first Reintegration Governance Forum to strengthen coordination and support sustainable reintegration.

Moïse arrived in Georgia with a dream of playing professional football.
But when promises turned into silence, Moïse found himself alone in a new country, without support.
Still, he refused to give up and found courage to start again.

#IOMGeorgia celebrated #EuropeDay with partners, diplomatic missions, migrants, and the wider public. From curious kids enjoying the puzzle to lively quizzes and border‑crossing simulations, the energy was incredible.
🇪🇺 Thank you to everyone who celebrated the day with us!

About 2500 children in #Georgia are forced to beg on the streets.
Globally, 1 in 3 trafficking victims are children.
Behind these numbers are stories where childhood is gradually fading away.

Four days.
One declaration.
A commitment to carry the work forward.
#IMRF2026 has concluded and now the real work begins. For 304 million migrants around the world, getting this right matters.

In 2018, countries came together and agreed on a shared framework - Global Compact #ForMigration - to improve how migration is governed.
At the International Migration Review Forum #IMRF2026 next week, governments will review progress on these commitments & shape next steps.
Together with @SEMIGRATION, IOM Georgia works to ensure that returnees can rebuild their lives and achieve sustainable futures.
Reintegration support focuses on long-term economic stability and social inclusion.
Le @SEMIGRATION renforce la coopération internationale 🇨🇭 🇬🇪 : le dialogue annuel avec la Géorgie consolide la coopération et la mise en place de solutions concrètes.
Meeting returnees supported through @UNmigration’s AVRR programme was a powerful reminder of why IOM’s work matters. During @ArthurErken’s visit to 🇬🇪, he met Dariko and Giorgi whose stories of courage and resilience highlight the true impact of tailored reintegration support.
