Evaluation of the emergency transit mechanism project in Niger

The evaluation assesses phase II of the Emergency Transit Mechanism (ETM) project in Niger. The project was launched to provide life-saving emergency assistance, protection, and access to durable solutions for forcibly displaced persons from Libya, as well as support to registered refugees and host communities in Niger. The evaluation provides an independent assessment of the results achieved by the ETM project. In addition, it identifies lessons learned and offers recommendations for future programming and similar humanitarian programmes. The evaluation’s scope covered phase II of the ETM project (April 2022–March 2025), with a focus on its implementation in Hamdallaye, Niamey, and Agadez. Intended users include UNHCR staff, government partners, donors, beneficiaries, and resettlement countries.
