DATE WHEN RESULTS AVAILABLE
A study is underway on the socio-economic integration of refugees in Morocco. This study addresses several criteria for integration into the host country and will be developed with an age, gender and diversity approach. Results will be available in the first quarter of 2020. The European Union will also evaluate the 2018/2019 program to support the creation of income-generating activities which has been carried out with two national institutions to assess coordination methods with the aim of perpetuating the process. The results will also be available in the first quarter of 2020. Finally, the Morocco operation regularly organizes focus group discussions with refugees (also based on age, gender and diversity) to assess the needs of PoCs for programmatic purposes for livelihood.
