What’s Happening?
Colombia hosts millions of displaced Venezuelans and has millions of internally displaced people of its own. But many Venezuelans in Colombia still struggle to access essential services, employment, and a dignified life so they continue to migrate, including through Darien Gap.
What Must Be Done?
Refugees International is calling on the international community to support the government of Colombia in its efforts to integrate and support displaced Venezuelans. Refugees International also supports resettlement in the United States of Venezuelans and other displaced people in Colombia.
