The New Humanitarian | Aid groups welcome Colombia move on Venezuelan migrants

Your browser does not support the audio element. BOGOTÁ Aid groups welcomed Colombia’s offer of temporary legal status for a decade to more than 1.7 million Venezuelan migrants, but cautioned that implementation will take time and said greater assistance was needed for one of the world’s most underfunded humanitarian crises. “We need to take action,” President Iván Duque said during the announcement on Monday afternoon in the Colombian capital, Bogotá – made alongside Filippo Grandi, the UN’s high commissioner for refugees. Despite many unanswered questions regarding the specific rights Venezuelans will receive and how it will be logistically rolled out, humanitarian groups and international NGOs praised the government s decision, although some warned it could drive up already rising xenophobia due to increased competition for jobs with local workers.
