BACKGROUND
The International Organization for Migration (IOM) has been working with the Federal Government of Nigeria on migration management in the country since 2001. Through its Assisted Voluntary Return and Reintegration (AVRR) Program, IOM aims to helps stranded migrants who wish to voluntarily return home safely and supports the most vulnerable to get back on their feet. In 2002, IOM signed a cooperation agreement with the government of Nigeria and launched the country mission. Ever since then, IOM has continued to assist stranded migrants in host countries to return voluntarily to their home countries through the AVRR programs.
Building on existing projects, IOM seeks to improve access to trusted information sources and promote informed decision making by sensitizing potential migrants on regular migration options, vulnerabilities to TiP and risks associated with irregular migration. In addition, the project seeks to build institutional capacities and implement community-based actions in high-risk states of irregular migration such as Lagos, Edo, and Delta. In collaboration with the Federal Government of Nigeria (FGN), the intervention aims to build the capacity of state and non-state actors to exercise evidence- based planning and monitoring of behavioural change communication to prevent TiP and Smuggling of Migrants (SoM). Secondly, through community-based actions (peer education, community dialogue, art-based competitions) and capacity building trainings, the project aims to enable returnees, community members, government, and nongovernment actors to take action to prevent exploitation and promote informed decision making on safe and regular migration pathways. Using information campaigns, outreach and media reports, IOM seeks to equip vulnerable migrants with reliable information they need to migrate safely and access assistance when necessary. IOM also aims to address the root causes of vulnerability to Trafficking in Person (TIP) and Smuggling of migrants through awareness raising and development of media messaging content and programming as well as engagement at the individual, household, community, and structural levels.
To this end, IOM Nigeria seeks to design and illustrate the social and behavioural change communication strategy and strategy document for Partners in Awareness Creation on Human Trafficking and Irregular Migration which is been developed by IOM consultants. The illustrations in the manuals are geared to serve as visual aids to assist in increasing the level of awareness among the community regarding the safe migration process.
IOM also seeks to develop and design appropriate Information, Education and Counselling materials (IEC) which focus on the promotion of safe migration, raising risks on irregular migration, including trafficking in persons, and promotion of opportunities to succeed in Nigeria. The messages for this IEC materials will be drawn from the result of a recent Knowledge Attitude and Practice (KAP) survey conducted by. IOM. These materials will be used to sensitise potential migrants and communities of origin of safe migration options as well as opportunities to make it in Nigeria.
