The Council decided today to renew the mandate of the European Integrated Border Management Assistance Mission in Libya (EUBAM Libya) for a further two years until 30 June 2027, with a budget of nearly €52 million for the period. EUBAM Libya contributes to enhancing the capacity of the Libyan authorities to manage Libya’s bordersfight cross-border crime -including human trafficking and migrant smuggling – and counter terrorism.

 

The civilian mission provides technical advice, conducts activities to build operational and technical capacity and carries out projects, complemented by specialised training and workshops. Ensuring full respect for international human rights standards and promoting a gender sensitive approach are core aspects of the mission’s work. EUBAM Libya was launched as a mission under the Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) in May 2013, and it is headed by Mr. Jan Vyčítal.
