IOM – International Organization for Migration

Objet publié

This project aims to assist the International Organization for Migration (IOM) in supporting community-driven recovery and rehabilitation efforts in rural and peri-urban locations. This includes up to 5 hromadas (communities), in Dnipropetrovska, Kharkivska, Sumska, and other Oblasts in Western and Central Ukraine. The project focuses on providing help to internally displaced persons who are seeking durable solutions. The project seeks to support the development and implementation of local recovery plans that align with the Government of Ukraine’s decentralization reform efforts and national recovery programs and policies led by the Ministry for Restoration. IOM aims to establish small grants and technical assistance mechanisms to empower civil society and community-based organizations to identify and implement community-level activities and local rehabilitation projects. Project activities include: (1) empowering local ownership of the recovery process; and (2) addressing barriers to durable solutions and broader recovery efforts, including small-scale infrastructure rehabilitation, in selected locations. IOM aims to design, develop, and deliver targeted capacity-building activities and establish a community-of-practice coordination platform for sustainable collaboration and knowledge-sharing.
