INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR MIGRATION (IOM)
EXPRESSION OF INTEREST FOR GRAPHIC DESIGNER TO DEVELOP IEC MATERIALS
Project Background
Despite significant efforts of the Government of Nigeria (GoN) to counter trafficking in persons (TiP), Nigeria remains a country of origin, transit, and destination for human trafficking. Driven by the demand for cheap labour and commercial sex, trafficking rings across borders and within countries capitalize on economic, social, and political vulnerabilities to exploit their victims. Irregular migrants along the Central Mediterranean route to Europe are particularly at risk. While the National Referral Mechanism present in Nigeria provides guidance on the referral process and stimulates the need for a multi-sectoral approach in the provision of assistance to VoTs, the actual operationalization of the referrals and provision of comprehensive rehabilitation and reintegration assistance, is relatively weak. Building on the EUTF-IOM Joint Initiative for Migrant Protection and Reintegration, and in collaboration with the Government of Nigeria, the project seeks to contribute to the improved sustainable rehabilitation and reintegration of Victims of Trafficking (VoTs) in Nigeria.
To this end, IOM Nigeria seeks to develop and design appropriate Information, Education and Communication materials (IEC) under the UKHOMES funded project; strengthening direct assistance for victims of trafficking (VOTs) in Nigeria through a victim centered approach.
