In our project work in Mexico, we advocate for the rights of migrants. We support migration committees and self-help groups to counteract the effects of labour migration. We also support healthcare for migrants and offer protection against human rights violations.
Counseling and Empowerment
The border city of Tapachula is one of the first stops for migrants on their way to Mexico or the United States. The migrants suffer from human rights violations and precarious living conditions. Our partner organisation "Centro de Derechos Humanos Fray Matías de Córdova" works to ensure access to rights and services for migrants, with a particular focus on women and girls.
