Migration Crisis in Latin America: Empowering Migrant and Refugee Communities (Cuso)

Join us for our upcoming event in collaboration with the World Refugee & Migration Council, Migration Crisis in Latin America: Empowering Migrant and Refugee Communities.

Our two organizations have spent years working with local government, the private sector and community partners to address forced displacement and the impact on citizens in Latin America. Record levels of migration, exacerbated by instability in Venezuela, is destabilizing the whole region. The panel will share current successes and discuss challenges underway.
