The aim of this task is to contribute to the UN National Durable Solutions Strategy for Libya through the provision of an updated Analysis of the Legal/Policy Framework on Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in Libya. Following a series of exchanges aimed to guide and steer this assignment, the Senior Durable Solutions Advisor at the UN Resident Coordinator’s Office and ICMPD agreed on organising a virtual meeting to allow ICMPD to present the status of the Analysis of the Legal/Policy Framework on IDPs to all UN
agencies working on the Strategy (incl. IOM, UNHCR, UN Habitat, WHO, WFP) and INGOs (incl. NRC and DRC). The aim of this presentation, which was organised on 6 December 2023, was to present the preliminary results of this legal analysis to the broader group working on the UN National Durable Solutions Strategy for Libya and better understand from the colleagues whether some specific areas of interest could be included. ICMPD introduced the background and context of the analysis and proceeded to the listing of important Libyan legal instruments containing relevant provisions for IDPs, including general provisions, judicial rulings, and fatwas. The participants expressed particular interest in knowing more about the hierarchy of laws in Libya, and, particularly, the legal value of fatwas. Participants were encouraged to share any potential feedback so to allow ICMPD to complement and complete the legal analysis. During the month of December, ICMPD finalised the Analysis of the Legal/Policy Framework on Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in Libya in Arabic. At the time of reporting, the Analysis is in the process of being translated into English and ICMPD is discussing with the UN Resident Coordinator’s Office on how the document will be disseminated. Preparations as regards other activities under AS3 Whilst the majority of the activities under this activity strand were temporarily put on hold upon request of the Libyan MoJ, ICMPD made significant progress as regards the discussions with the relevant Libyan authorities throughout the reporting period. Thanks to its continuous coordination efforts with the Libyan partners through its Focal Point at the MFA, ICMPD managed to re-open the concrete discussions on the LIBMITAF activities focusing on the migration legislation. On 20 October 2022, the MFA sent an official Note Verbale to ICMPD including the MoJ’s “strategic plan in the field of trainings and development”, which listed all the topics and fields of interest of the Ministry (e.g. forensics, crimes related to human trafficking, trainings forthe Attorney General’s Office related to migration, activities focusing on enhancing international cooperation etc.). ICMPD was asked to assess whether the LIBMITAF activities could respond to the training needs and priorities of the MoJ. On 1 November 2022, ICMPD shared an official Note Verbale with the Mo)J, detailing the proposed project activities that correspond to the priorities of the Ministry (see Annex |). Subsequently, ICMPD organised an in-person meeting with representatives of the MFA and the MoJ .ı EEEEEEEEEESEEEEEESEEEEEEEEEEEEETE EEEEEEEEEEEETETETER > 10 November 2022. ICMPD discussed its proposal with the Mo) in detail and ICMPD also proposed the organisation of a “follow-up and prioritisation workshop” to discuss and agree on the specific contents of the proposed trainings and other activities. During the meeting it was agreed to organise this prioritisation workshop on 12 December 2022 to discuss the details of the activities to be jointly implemented. Following the meeting and subsequent exchanges between ICMPD and the Ministry, ICMPD was requested by the Ministry to temporarily postpone the workshop.

The Group thus provides a space for international implementers to share good practices and lessons learned from their own experiences and offers the opportunity to avoid duplication of work and the overburdening of stakeholders. ICMPD closely collaborated with the Group in drafting a CSO briefing paper titled “Insights and recommendations for meaningful engagement of Civil Society Organisations in Libya”, which was finalised at the beginning of the reporting period. Throughout the drafting process, ICMPD actively participated to the Coordination Group to discuss the ideas for the structure of the paper as well as to coordinate and provide inputs during the editing process. The paper, which aims to provide a general understanding on what it means to work with Libyan CSOs as an international actor, as well as the main recommendations to follow when engaging with Libyan organisations, was submitted to the donors on 4 October 2022. Preparation as regards the activities to be implemented together with Libyan CSOs ICMPD is waiting for the MFA to give the approval to share the list of CSOs with which ICMPD is planning to work to the relevant Libyan authorities. ICMPD is keeping the CSOs constantly informed about the situation and its plans for the first activities to be implemented with them. Furthermore, the preparations for the implementation of such activities are proceeding smoothly, and ICMPD stands ready to proceed with all necessary logistical arrangements for their implementation.
