International Organization for Migration (IOM) Cairo
Unverified non-profit organisation
IOM is committed to the principle that humane and orderly migration benefits migrants and society. IOM’s Regional Office in Egypt was established in 1991 to assist third-country nationals forcefully displaced by the Gulf War (through voluntary repatriation, or resettlement in third countries). Since Egypt became an IOM Member State in 1990, cooperation between IOM and the Egyptian Government has grown many folds. Indeed throughout this period, IOM’s network of Government and civil society partners in region grew considerably. Today, IOM’s Regional Office in Egypt continues to successfully implement activities in a variety of programmatic areas.
