Same but different: An analysis of the experiences of migrant men and women in Libya (April 2023)

This study is part of IOM Libya’s efforts to gain a better understanding of how specific vulnerabilities influence the experiences of migrant women and men in the country. This assessment compares the issues that migrant men and women experience in Libya and are associated with four key areas: community cohesion, household responsibilities, labour market engagement, and safety and security. The report highlights how cultural norms and social practices may translate into different roles and responsibilities for men and women, which present diverse opportunities and challenges.
