Debido a la actual crisis socio-económica, política y de derechos humanos en Venezuela, cerca de 4.5 millones de personas han salido de su país; convirtiéndose en la segunda peor crisis migratoria del mundo, después de Siria. Se estima que más del 20% de los refugiados y migrantes son niños y... adolescentes. Cerca del 57% de los venezolanos en el exterior se encuentran en Ecuador, Colombia y Perú, según Naciones Unidas.
En 2018, Plan International decidió implementar una estrategia regional en Colombia, Ecuador y Perú para mejorar las condiciones de vida de los refugiados y migrantes venezolanos, durante sus etapas de tránsito y asentamiento.
Durante los meses de junio y julio de 2019, el equipo de la oficina regional visitó más de siete ciudades entre Colombia, Ecuador y Perú para escuchar los testimonios de los refugiados y migrantes, así como para analizar sus necesidades en materia de mecanismos de protección, prevención de la violencia y salud sexual y reproductiva.
El presente documento refleja algunas de las situaciones de riesgo y violencia a las que millones de venezolanos se enfrentan cada día, desde los testimonios y experiencias de 17 refugiados y migrantes.
