Summary of the Brazil chapter for the RMRP 2022.
Summary of the situation, planning scenario, and response priorities for the Refugee and Migrant Response Plan for 2022 in the Caribbean Sub-region (Aruba, Curaçao, Dominican Republic, Guyana, Trinidad & Tobago).
Latin America and the Caribbean are witness to the largest flow of refugees and migrants in the region’s history. More than six million refugees and migrants from Venezuela have left their country of origin, with more than five million being hosted in the region. The COVID-19 pandemic has deepened pre-existing inequalities and increased the vulnerability of refugees and migrants in society. The effects on the living conditions, security, dignity and health of refugees and migrants from Venezuela and their host communities have been dramatic.
Between September and October, UNHCR observed the arrival of an average of 150 individuals per month at the monitored border entry points in Regions 1 and 2, including Venezuelan indigenous Waraos. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to burden the healthcare system and seriously hinder access to livelihoods and employment for refugees, asylum-seekers, and local communities. Between September and October, UNHCR delivered aid, including food kits and sanitary items, and provided interpretation support to facilitate access to Government services.
Update on the COVID-19 situation in the region and the response of R4V partners in 17 countries.
Aruba and Curaçao continue to receive the outflow of Venezuelan refugees and migrants, who often undertake dangerous journeys to reach safety. UNHCR provides information and guidance on the asylum process, regularization, and documentation to refugees and asylum-seekers, while exploring local integration opportunities and assisting the most vulnerable.
Trinidad and Tobago (T&T) remained under a State of Emergency in October, with a gradual resumption of activity in key economic sectors, including hospitality and entertainment. Challenges in managing hospital occupancy for COVID-19 patients were reported, while COVID-19 vaccination drives continued, inclusive of refugees and migrants.
