“We left everything in Venezuela. We don't have a place to live or sleep and we don't
have anything to eat. "

- Nayebis Carolina Figuera, a 34-year-old Venezuelan who fled to neighboring Brazil and
became known for this comment

In the past, Venezuela has generously hosted thousands of refugees from the region
and other parts of the world. Now, the number of people from Venezuela forced to leave
their homes continues to rise, and a significant number of them need international
protection. More than 4 million Venezuelans have left their country to date, according to
data from the governments that receive them, representing one of the largest
displacement crises in the world in recent times.

Venezuelans have increased requests and requests for refugee and asylum in other
countries to 8 thousand percent since 2014, especially in the American continent and
Spain. Many Venezuelans who would meet the criteria to be recognized as refugees do
not apply for international protection through asylum procedures and instead opt for
other legal forms of stay in host countries, which may be faster to obtain and They allow
access to work, education and social services.

However, the majority of Venezuelans who decide to leave their country for a better life,
are left without documentation or permission to stay in their new countries. That is why
Venezuelans usually suffer from basic rights and services, in addition to having to
endure xenophobic treatment by residents of the neighboring countries to which they
migrated.

Most of the refugees and migrants from Venezuela who arrive in neighboring countries
are families with children, pregnant women, older adults and people with disabilities.
Often forced to take irregular routes to reach safety, they may fall victim to smugglers,
traffickers and irregular armed groups. More and more families arrive with increasingly
scarce resources and are in immediate need of documentation, protection, shelter, food
and medicine.

Host countries and communities in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica,
Ecuador, Mexico, Panama, Peru, and the southern Caribbean have received them
generously, but they are increasingly overloaded and some are reaching a point of
saturation.
