On International Women’s Day, let’s know the stories of these Venezuelans who are doing great at making our terruño proud
The crisis in Venezuela extends to all sectors, yet Margarita Cadena’s documentary, “Women of the Venezuelan Chaos,” displays how women are distinctly touched—and how they fight back against the turmoil.
Venezuelan migration is today the largest displacement crisis the Americas has ever seen, and globally the second largest after Syria’s. The predictions for 2019 became true: there are now at least 4.7 million Venezuelan migrants and refugees in the world
Little attention is being paid to those requesting asylum in the U.S. or overstaying their visas. They’re held for months and their loved ones barely get any news about their wellbeing.
Venezuelan women are dying while migrating. It’s happening silently, thoroughly, and now we finally have data on it.
The International Migration Organization just announced that Venezuelans are now the first nationality among over 500 migrants who have disappeared in the Americas in 2019.
With a measure informed by solidarity and pragmatism, Colombia granted citizenship to more than 24,000 babies born of Venezuelan parents, who were at risk of being stateless.
Venezuelan refugees need international protection. One of the instruments that can be of use includes a definition of “refugees’ that could apply to our fellow nationals.
While some may say that the U.S. has been vehemently supporting democracy and human rights in our country, Venezuelans believe those considerations can be extended to regularize the migrant population in the U.S.
We’ve been able to hang on for 22 years in one of the craziest media landscapes in the world. We’ve seen different media outlets in Venezuela (and abroad) closing shop, something we’re looking to avoid at all costs. Your collaboration goes a long way in helping us weather the storm.
