Safe and dignified return and sustainable reintegration are an indispensable part of a comprehensive approach to migration management. 
Assisted Voluntary Return and Reintegration (AVRR) is one of many migration management services IOM offers to migrants and governments. It aims at orderly, humane and cost-effective return and reintegration of migrants who are unable or unwilling to remain in host countries and wish to return voluntarily to their countries of origin. 

The main beneficiaries of IOM’s return and reintegration assistance are stranded migrants in host or transit countries, irregular migrants, regular migrants, unsuccessful asylum seekers, and migrants in vulnerable situations, such as victims of trafficking, unaccompanied and separated children, or migrants with health-related needs. IOM also provides pre-departure assistance and counseling, medical counseling, transportation, post-arrival assistance, as well as reception and reintegration support to migrants.

IOM’s AVRR programs support Sudanese nationals returning to Sudan under AVRR. Reintegration assistance provided under AVRR can include counseling or medical assistance upon return, a reintegration grant to set up a small business, vocational training or job placement and education as well as follow-up monitoring. IOM also assists migrants in Sudan who are unwilling or unable to remain in Sudan to return to their countries of origin.
