In line with the Government of Chad’s “Plan de Réponse Global en Faveur des Retournés Tchadiens de la RCA”, IOM designed a project to address the socio-economic reintegration challenges faced by returnees, while at the same time, strengthening the absorptive capacities of communities of return in order to mitigate potential tension and strengthen community cohesion. The project is a second phase from a first project, “Reintegration of Female Returnees from Sudan and Central African Republic in Chad,” equally funded by the Government of Japan and implemented from March 2014 to February 2015.
