The COVID-19 health crisis has put to the test Latin America’s already precarious social protection systems. This paper comparatively examines what type of social protection has been provided, by whom, and to what extent migrant and refugee populations have been included in these programmes in seven countries of the region during the COVID-19 pandemic, between March and December 2020. We develop a typology of models of social protection highlighting the assemblages of actors, different modes of protection and the emerging migrants’ subjectifcation in Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, and Uruguay in relation to Non-Contributory Social Transfer (NCST) programmes and other actions undertaken by state and non-state actors. The analysis is based on 85 semi-structured interviews with representatives of national and local governments, International Organisations, Civil Society Organisations, and migrant-led organisations across 16 cities, and a systematic review of regulatory frameworks in the country-case studies. The proposed typology shows broad heterogeneity and complexity regarding different degrees of inclusion of migrant and refugee populations, particularly in pre-existing and new NCST programmes. These actions are furthering notions of migrant protection that are contingent and crisis-driven, imposing temporal limitations that often selectively exclude migrants based on legal status. It also brings to the fore the path-dependent nature of policies and practices of exclusion/inclusion in the region, which impact on migrants’ efective access to social and economic rights, while shaping the broader dynamics of migration governance in the region. https://doi.org/10.1186/s40878-021-00265-x
The R4V inter-agency response is prioritizing collective PSEA activies within the framework of the RMRP (Refugee and Migrant Response Plan). The R4V PSEA Mapping is an inter-agency initiative which was initially agreed within the Regional R4V Inter-Sector Coordination Group (ISCG). The key objective of the R4V PSEA Mapping was to conduct a stocktaking exercise of PSEA initiatives within national and sub-regional Platforms to provide a first step for regional PSEA strengthening as a joint effort between R4V Platform partners, as accountability towards PSEA standards is also a collective effort. The mapping aimed to analyse and draw on conclusions on existing activities and programs addressing PSEA, as well as identifying needs and gaps within the framework of the R4V partner organizations. The mapping was guided by the Inter-Agency Steering Committee’s (IASC) PSEA Minimum Operating Standards (MOS) based on the IASC Six Core Principles Relating to Sexual Exploitation and Abuse. This document will serve as the baseline for all future R4V PSEA initiatives.

Explanatory Note for October's Venezuelan Refugee and Migrant Figures Update - Oct 2021
Refugees and Migrants from Venezuela in the Latin America and the Caribbean as of October 2021
Report on progress made by R4V partners from January to June implementing the RMRP 2021, including people reached per sector and national and sub-regional platform, as well as areas of critical under-funding affecting the response for refugees and migrants from Venezuela.
The Mapping to create an Accountability to Affected Populations (AAP) baseline was conducted to take stock and map the current implementation conditions of AAP across the R4V regional response. The exercise aimed to provide a clearer picture of the existing gaps, challenges, and capacities that need addressing to strengthen AAP and identify opportunities for the increased implementation of collective participatory approaches that put affected populations at the centre of the response.
