Emergency response
There has been a massive increase in the
number of refugees, migrants, and returnees
in transit through Central America. They are
moving mostly through irregular channels, like
the dangerous Darien Gap between Panama
and Colombia, with many facing bureaucratic
barriers, suffering injuries, facing extortion
and sexual violence, or disappearing and being
separated
from their families, or even killed. The
number crossing irregularly into Panama from
the Darien Gap doubled from 2021.
The Emergency Appeal covers actions in Panama,
Costa Rica, Honduras, El Salvador, Guatemala,
and Mexico. It is part of a network-wide funding
requirement of 28 million Swiss francs.
