In search of better opportunities and a brighter future, many people embark on dangerous journeys to Libya, often unaware of the risks that lie ahead.

For many migrants, the journey comes with heartbreaking experiences, including human trafficking, torture, arbitrary detention, forced labour and sexual violence.

A February 2026 UN report highlighted serious abuses faced by migrants in Libya, while IOM estimated that nearly 944,000 migrants were living in the country during March–April 2026.

Behind every migration story is a human life, a family and a dream. But is the price of seeking a better life becoming too high?
