His career with the UNHCR spans over twenty-five years. Akodjènou is widely credited for creating enabling policies and agreements that saw the return of more than two million refugees back to Sierra Leone between 2000 - 2003. Further to this, he oversaw the return of over a hundred thousand refugees from Algeria, Burkina Faso, Niger and Mauritania back to their homes in Mali. He was at the helm during the peak of the Great Lakes emergency operations in the mid-nineties, as well as those of Cote D'Ivoire and Liberia in the early 2000s, making him one of Africa's most prominent humanitarians.
