Vacancy: IOM – UN Migration Job Vacancy : Public Information Officer

Irregular  migration  along  the  Central  Mediterranean  route  is  increasingly  dangerous  for migrants. Crossing the Mediterranean to Italy is by far the deadliest route, with 1 death recorded for 35 arrivals (IOM, 2016). In addition, over 70% of the migrants interviewed by IOM on their arrival in Italy report that they were victims of trafficking or other exploitative practices during their migratory journey along the routes of the Central Mediterranean. Further, over 25% of the Ivorian migrants returning from Libya are women with specific protection needs.
