‘Voluntary return’ has increased dramatically in Norway since 2008, with more than 1000 returnees to Iraq alone. At this seminar we will present a recent evaluation of the return and reintegration programme to Iraq. There will also be a broader discussion of different perspectives on return programmes, post-return reintegration and the sustainability of return.
