This evaluation examines the BMZ’s support for sustainable reintegration in countries of origin for those returning from Germany between 2017 and 2023. The BMZ aimed to help returnees regain economic and social stability in their countries of origin, thereby ensuring that “returning leads to sustainable reintegration.” The objective of the evaluation is to retrospectively assess the measures commissioned by the BMZ to support the sustainable reintegration of returnees, thereby contributing to an evidence-based approach to policymaking in this field. The evaluation questions address the OECD DAC criteria of relevance, effectiveness, impact, sustainability and coherence, and refer to both the individual and institutional levels.
