Migration Sunami running out of funds

 

To the migratory wave that our country is facing, which has served as a passage for some 300,000 people who venture on a dangerous journey from which they do not know if they will come out alive, now adds to the lack of economic resources of a key organization to help migrants: the UN Refugee Agency (Acnur). Until the end of last month, it was only able to obtain financial support to cover a third of its operations for this year. For example, the areas most vulnerable to economic hardship are, for example, safe spaces and shelters for migrants in border areas; distribution of basic necessities; support for regularization and documentation processes; cash aid for vulnerable people, child protection and prevention of gender violence. That is, in addition to putting life at risk, Needs are now added that can hardly be solved with the little that is available. It is imperative that the international community become aware that this is a problem that is getting worse and worse and that more resources are needed to face a reality whose origin is inequality, conflicts, or the lack of opportunity to achieve a better future.
