Mixed Migration Hub

The Mixed Migration Hub (MHub) works on behalf of the North Africa Mixed Migration Task Force consisting of the Danish Refugee Council (DRC), International Organization for Migration (IOM), Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), Mixed Migration Centre MMC), Save the Children, United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) and United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC). It promotes a human rights-based approach to ensuring the protection of people moving in mixed and complex flows to, through and from North Africa. MHub produces knowledge on the human rights protection issues faced by people on the move in North Africa for use by policymakers, agencies, donors, the public and academia, with a view to inform advocacy, policy and program development. It fosters collaborative approaches among key stakeholders and serves as the secretariat of the North Africa Mixed Migration Task Force.

MHub provides information on routes, flows and trends in mixed migratory movements in North Africa. It provides support to governments and other agencies on research on refugees and migrants, conducts in-house research and analysis, and commissions external researchers to undertake dedicated multi-country studies. MHub has field researchers stationed in a number of countries along key migratory routes undertaking field surveys with people on the move. MHub also conducts academic outreach and holds research events with research partners and stakeholders.
