[Thread #migration #Niger]

Two years ago, UNHCR established for the 1st time an Emergency Evacuation Transit Mechanism (ETM) for the evacuation of #refugees from detention in #Libya to #Niger.

The full agreement between UNHCR & Niger is available here: asgi.it/wp-content/upl… ImageImageImageImage
Since 2017, more than 2,900 refugees and asylum-seekers have been evacuated to #Niger, but while EU has promised to provide safe pathways & EU countries have agreed to host them, the resettlement promises are not respected. Image
By August, only 59 %, (1,723 people) have been resettled, but what will happen to those that do not meet resettlement requirements remains unclear.

Without access to resettlement these people are left in a limbo rather than with a sustainable solution.

@diegorottman El nene es un vecinito que vive en un asentamiento de desplazados aquí en Niamey. Como él y su familia mucha gente de las regiones que escapa de la violencia de Boko Haram.
@diegorottman Si me permitís, @diegorottman quisiera compartir un poco de lo que está ocurriendo aquí en #Niger (no confundir con Nigeria, que es OTRO país y que es como confundir Argentina con Brasil)

#Niger Today in #Niamey, hundreds refugees decided to protest to ask for justice and support. "We left our country to find peace and freedom, but we never get durable solution by the UN @Refugees agency. Why EU resettlement promises are not respected?"
⬇ ⬇ Refugees in #Niger prepared this letter asking for solutions. Men, women and children who have survived from Libya are now kept in limbo without being able to start their lives. Why EU countries like #France, #Germany or #Sweden are not respecting their agreement? ImageImageImage
