Assisted Voluntary Return and Reintegration (AVRR) is an indispensable part of IOM’s comprehensive approach to migration management and is aimed at promoting orderly and humane return and reintegration of migrants who are unable or unwilling to remain in host or transit countries and wish to return voluntarily to their countries of origin. IOM Nigeria has worked with the Federal Government of Nigeria to provide AVRR support to Nigerian migrants since 2002. Recently, with support of the European Union (EU) and Government of the United Kingdom, IOM is implementing several programs aiming at improving the reintegration of returnees through providing protection and assistance to vulnerable and stranded migrants, including the provision of immediate rehabilitation and recovery support to Victims of Trafficking (VoTs).

IOM in collaboration with the Government of Nigeria seeks to contribute to the improved sustainable rehabilitation and reintegration of VoTs in Nigeria. During the lifeline of these projects IOM seeks to improve the National Referral Mechanism (NRM), launched to facilitate multi-sectoral assistance and reintegration support for VoTs. The projects also aim to enhance the capacity of selected safe houses and rehabilitation shelters in Lagos, Edo, Delta, Ogun and Enugu States to provide protection services.

IOM will develop standardized screening tools based on a victim-centered approach. Furthermore, IOM will facilitate coordination meetings among stakeholders to share best practices and lessons learnt on the referral process of VoTs to strengthen future practices. With limited options of shelters/safe houses that provide services such as shelter, counselling, medical, psychosocial and rehabilitation support for VoTs (especially male VoTs), the provision of these and other services will ensure that VoTs and other migrants vulnerable to violence/abuse are provided with short to long term accommodation where they can begin their recovery process and start to build resilience.

Within this framework, IOM is seeking to invite Expression of Interest from Service Providers that operate safe houses/shelters for vulnerable persons such as Victims of Trafficking, Unaccompanied Migrant Children, persons with disabilities, single parents and children, and persons with medical needs.
