Contesto

According to UNHCR and IOM by September 2019, the migration of Venezuelans out of their country had already reached 4.3 million people. This process, in addition to the emotional burden of family dislocation, loss of talents, increased social discontent, among other internal consequences, also has regional consequences, due to the exacerbation of social tensions in host countries, growing risks for migrants, new needs for assistance and protection, among others.

Due to the implementation of new migration requirements established by the Government of Ecuador and which entered into force on 26 August this year, a humanitarian visa is needed to enter Ecuador, what will increase of informal border crossing and rise the number of people in need of international protection.
