Refugees in Libya

Libya currently hosts both a significant refugee population and a large number of internally displaced people (IDPs), driven by ongoing political instability, conflict, and recent natural disasters. As of 2024:

  • Refugees and Migrants: Libya is home to an estimated 706,000 migrants, including those from Sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East, and other regions. This includes around 125,000 Sudanese who fled to Libya after the outbreak of conflict in Sudan in 2023. Many refugees in Libya endure precarious conditions, facing issues such as limited access to healthcare, food, and safe housing, as well as risks of detention and exploitation​
  • Internally Displaced People (IDPs): Approximately 125,800 Libyans remain internally displaced, with many unable to return home due to destroyed infrastructure, security concerns, and the need for basic services. The displacement crisis was exacerbated by the September 2023 flooding from Storm Daniel, which left more than 44,800 people displaced, primarily in eastern Libya​.

Supporting New Beginnings

Goodwill Caravan has been active in providing emergency aid to Libya following the catastrophic flooding that struck the eastern part of the country in September 2023, which resulted in thousands of deaths and widespread devastation. Our response has focused on urgent relief for families who lost homes and are struggling with basic needs. Partnering with local organizations, Goodwill Caravan has delivered essential items such as food packs, blankets, mattresses, and other life-saving resources to those in isolated and severely affected areas like Derna.

Building on successful past collaborations, Goodwill Caravan will be launching a comprehensive training program in 2025, aiming to provide the necessary skills to refugees to secure employment in the aviation sector. This project aims to go beyond immediate relief, offering long-term, sustainable support to Libyan and Sub-Saharan youth who suffer from high unemployment rates of over 50%.
