IOM-NCFRMI Collaboration in Nigeria: A Decade of Impact

This book critically examines the collaboration between the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and the National Commission for Refugees, Migrants, and Internally Displaced Persons (NCFRMI) in Nigeria. It explores how this partnership responded to the growing challenges of displacement, migration governance, and humanitarian needs across the country. The book highlights key joint interventions such as the registration and profiling of internally displaced persons (IDPs), voluntary return and reintegration of Nigerian migrants, humanitarian aid delivery, livelihood empowerment, and institutional capacity building. Drawing on project reports, government records, and interviews with stakeholders, the book assesses the impact of these interventions on national policy and field operations. It reveals significant achievements in improving coordination, policy formulation, and service delivery, while also identifying persistent challenges such as funding constraints, transfer of staff, and bureaucratic bottlenecks. The book concludes with practical recommendations for strengthening future cooperation in Nigeria.
