UNHCR’s 2008 and 2009 programme in Togo aims to facilitate the
reintegration of an estimated 7,500 refugees from Ghana and Benin, seeking the support of other UN
agencies, the European Union and the Togolese High Commissioner for
Repatriation and Humanitarian Action. If the situation in the country improves
after the September general elections, UNHCR will assist some 4,500 refugees to
return home from Benin.
