Among the six million+ Venezuelans who have left their country, there are displaced citizens and refugees; but institutions, politicians, and social agents decide to deny them this status, feeding a vicious circle of human rights violations
Security forces, gangs and guerrillas were forcing people out of cities, villages and Indigenous communities even before the massive migration waves
The forced migration that has affected millions of Venezuelans has been going on for long enough and it’s reached large enough proportions that one or two pioneers are followed by groups of three generations
We’ve been able to hang on for 19 years in one of the craziest media landscapes in the world. Now, the difficulty level was raised abruptly with the global pandemic. We’ve seen different media outlets in Venezuela (and abroad) cutting personnel to avoid closing shop. This is something we’re looking to avoid at all costs, and it seems we will. But your collaboration goes a long way in helping us weather the storm.
