IMMIGRATION

Immigration is the entry into a country or región of people who were born or

come from another place. It represents one of the two options or alternatives of

the term migration, which is applied to the movement of people from one place

to another and these movement entail a change of temporary or permanente

residence. The two options for these migratory movements are: emigration,

which is the departure of people from a specific country, región or place to go

to a different place and immigration, which is the entry into a specific country,

región or place from ather parts. Thus, an emigration in the country or place of

arrival. And with regard to this last idea, it must be clarified that until an

emigrand arrives in a new country, he should hot be considere dan immigrant,

which has been happening in recent years, with the great migratory crisis in

europe, since hundreds and even thousand of people have been emigrating

from troubled countries in africa and the middle east and have died in

shipwrecks and other accidents before arriving as immigrants in european

countries.

HUNGER AND MIGRATION

(HAMBRE Y MIGRACIÓN)

When heberson emigrated to cucuta, he built a hause out of

boards and cans so that his family could join him in this

colombian city. He got it. Now they live together and have

started a new life far from Venezuela, their country of origin. But

nothing is being easy. Neither he, nor reycidet, can work formally

in Colombia due to lack of documentation. This precariousness is

even putting their diet and that of their child at risk. Sometimes,

heberson confesses, they can only afford toe at once a day.
