Introduction to the ICVA Latin America Regional Hub

 

 

 

In Spetember 2019, ICVA joined in partnership with FM4 Paso Libre in Guadalajara, Mexico to extend ICVA's presence in the region. FM4 Paso Libre is a non-profit organisation dedicated to the defense and promotion of human rights of migrants and refugees through comprehensive humanitarian assistance, advocacy and research in western Mexico. FM4 Paso Libre is an active ICVA member since 2018.

The Latin America Regional Hub primarly focuses on: 
  • Strengthening the role of NGO Fora in regional and national-level humanitarian coordination and advocacy
  • Tracking trends related to forced migration and displacement in the region
  • Linking operational realities to global policies and practice
  • Creating opportunities for regional consultation and collective action on issues of common interest.
