The UK continues to provide humanitarian assistance through a number of Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) and UN agencies in Libya. UK funding, via the EU Emergency Trust Fund for Africa, supports a range of UN High Commissioner of Refugees (UNHCR) efforts to assist migrants within Libya and with the evacuation of refugees for resettlement.
