The IOM’s Regional Programme to Strengthen Capacities to Protect and Assist Vulnerable Migrants in Mesoamerica has undertaken a series of efforts to improve assistance to and protection of the rights of minors and women migrating in vulnerable conditions, victims of trafficking and sexual violence, refugees and asylum-seekers, extra continental migrants, and indigenous and LGBTI migrant populations, among others. Collecting the stories of migrant youth throughout the region is part of IOM’s mission to increase the visibility of this human calamity and to sensitize and invite reflection on the harsh reality facing these populations.
