DRC: Improve conditions of refugees, asylum seekers and migrants (mixed migrants) and capacities of relevant stakeholders in Libya, including local authorities and civil society
Fleeing persecution, violence and armed conflict, mixed migrant groups from Sub-Sahara and the Middle East continue to arrive in Libya despite a fragile protection environment. Due to the ongoing instability and the lack of a national protection system, they are highly vulnerable and risk abuse and detention. The project aims to foster a protective environment for mixed migrants in detention centers and camps in and around Tripoli through improved protection and humanitarian assistance.

- Libya lacks a national system for the registration of asylum seekers and the recognition of refugees, as well as a mechanism to monitor and protect those at risk of being forcibly returned to their country.
- The Department of Combating Illegal Migration (DCIM) remains the authority in charge of detention centres for migrants and IDP camps.
