The International Organization for Migration was initially established
in 1951 as the Intergovernmental Committee for European Migration (ICEM) to
help resettle people displaced by World War II. It is the principal
intergovernmental
organization in the field of migration. IOM is dedicated to promoting humane
and
orderly migration for the benefit of all. It does so by providing services
and
advice to governments and migrants. IOM works to help ensure the orderly and
humane management of migration, to promote international cooperation on
migration issues, to assist in the search for practical solutions to
migration
problems and to provide humanitarian assistance to migrants in need, be they
refugees, displaced persons or other uprooted people.

A flag showing this logo on a dark blue field can be seen in a photo at

Its flag is blue with its white logo in the middle of the flag, and its
English
and French abbreviations are placed above and under the logo. Its blue field
is
darker than the UN blue. There are two variants of the flag. The current one
is
with abbreviation of Arial font, and the other one is with a Times. The
other
difference is a rounded square around the logo.
While the current logo (based on its website: http://www.iom.int ) is
without
the thin square and uses the Arial font, I think the other version is a
former
variant, but still in use.
