Mixed Migration Trends in Libya: Changing Dynamics and Protection Challenges

UNHCR Libya and IMPACT Initiatives commissioned Altai to conduct research on mixed migration patterns in Libya, with a particular focus on the south of the country and on communities of concern to UNHCR. The objectives of this study are to assess the evolution of mixed migration trends and routes to and within Libya, and to map out refugees and migrants concentrations in southern Libya, and determine their vulnerabilities and protection needs. This report’s findings are based on qualitative data collected between October and December 2016 in Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, Italy, Niger, Chad and Italy.
