#IOMGeorgia celebrated #EuropeDay with partners, diplomatic missions, migrants, and the wider public. From curious kids enjoying the puzzle to lively quizzes and border‑crossing simulations, the energy was incredible.
🇪🇺 Thank you to everyone who celebrated the day with us!
About 2500 children in #Georgia are forced to beg on the streets.
Globally, 1 in 3 trafficking victims are children.
Behind these numbers are stories where childhood is gradually fading away.

Four days.
One declaration.
A commitment to carry the work forward.
#IMRF2026 has concluded and now the real work begins. For 304 million migrants around the world, getting this right matters.
In 2018, countries came together and agreed on a shared framework - Global Compact #ForMigration - to improve how migration is governed.
At the International Migration Review Forum #IMRF2026 next week, governments will review progress on these commitments & shape next steps.
Together with @SEMIGRATION, IOM Georgia works to ensure that returnees can rebuild their lives and achieve sustainable futures.
Reintegration support focuses on long-term economic stability and social inclusion.
Le @SEMIGRATION renforce la coopération internationale 🇨🇭 🇬🇪 : le dialogue annuel avec la Géorgie consolide la coopération et la mise en place de solutions concrètes.
Meeting returnees supported through @UNmigration’s AVRR programme was a powerful reminder of why IOM’s work matters. During @ArthurErken’s visit to 🇬🇪, he met Dariko and Giorgi whose stories of courage and resilience highlight the true impact of tailored reintegration support.
Productive exchange with Deputy Foreign Minister of Georgia, @TotladzeKhatuna, discussing partnership with @MFAgovge ahead of Global Diaspora Summit. Grateful for Georgia’s support to #IOM Resilience Campaign and for joint efforts on diaspora engagement & preparations for #IMRF.

We continue the fight against human trafficking!
This week, nearly 85 social workers from Tbilisi, Kutaisi, and Batumi received training on identifying trafficking risks, safe referrals, and victim-centered approaches.
Thanks to @StateINL for supporting this important initiative!
Reliable migration data is essential for policies and programmes that benefit migrants and communities.
