What’s Happening?
Millions of Venezuelans have fled their country in recent years to escape economic, social, political, and institutional collapse. Venezuelans who remain in the country face hunger, lack of access to basic medical care, as well as human rights violations at the hands of the Maduro regime.
What Must Be Done?
Refugees International urges the international community to support and welcome Venezuelans who are fleeing their homes, as they are in dire need of protection and opportunity abroad.
