On 11 June 2019 the International Organization for Migration, posted on ReliefWeb, described work that tried to reintegrate returning migrants in Ethiopia while repairing degraded land, noting that competition for scarce living space and climate stress often push people to leave and then greet them with the same pressures when they come home.
The release said community leaders showed flood damage and land degradation, and it framed safer return as needing both livelihood support and environmental rehabilitation so returnees would not face the same shocks that first drove migration.
Kept as migration and environment archive, the IOM note dates a mid-2019 approach that tied Ethiopian returnee programs to land and flood recovery.
