Better living conditions for Venezuelan migrants – EUROPANA V

Project in Colombia, Brazil, Peru and Venezuela

01.06.2024 - 31.05.2026

Venezuela is in the midst of a deep political and humanitarian crisis. Years of mismanagement have left people unable to meet their basic needs; malnutrition is widespread, and the healthcare system is in a catastrophic state. This has led to the largest wave of migration in Latin American history, which is straining the institutional and financial capacity of the host countries. Venezuelan refugees are living in precarious conditions. This regional project helps improve the living conditions of people in need in Colombia, Brazil, Peru, and Venezuela.
