Refugee Families Resettled from Libya to Norway

The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) announced it has resettled six families, including 19 refugees from Libya to safety in Norway.

In a tweet, the UNHCR explained that the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) helped with the travel logistics.

It also added that the resettlement was possible thanks to the Regional Development and Protection Programme North Africa (RDPP-NA), and funding from Italy and the European Union.

Earlier in July, UNHCR announced that 95 asylum seekers and refugees were evacuated from Libya to Italy.

According to UNHCR, these included children, women, and survivors of violence. It added that it relies on the international community to provide safe pathways out of Libya, for the most vulnerable.

Last month, it reported that 803,000 people in Libya need humanitarian assistance, including displaced people and refugees.

Among those in need are 168,011 internally displaced persons (IDPs), 661,892 returnees, and more than 42,000 registered asylum seekers and refugees.

The UN body added that “poverty and a lack of access to livelihoods and basic services, such as health and education, are among the common challenges.” UNHCR’s interventions “target the most vulnerable (including shelter rehabilitation, emergency cash, food, hygiene and non-food items) while strengthening the protective environment, enhancing resilience, and contributing to solutions.”

Over the past three years, UNHCR announced the completion of 148 fast-track projects, mostly in the health, education, and protection sectors across Libya. It has spent nearly $7.5 million on these projects.

Each project is identified in consultation with national and local authorities, and the active participation of local communities.
