IOM

Since March 2022, the IOM Coordination Office for the Mediterranean has been supporting Ukrainian diaspora organizations in the response to the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine and in the assistance to displaced Ukrainians in Italy. IOM has facilitated the coordination among diaspora organizations and with relevant institutional stakeholders through a mechanism of online conferences held at national and regional level. Some of these organizations have been further supported by IOM through a sub-granting system launched in November 2022 to finance 7 humanitarian projects in Ukraine.
During the event IOM will present a model for diaspora engagement drawn from this initiative, which can be replicated in other similar contexts at the country level where diasporas are based.
