Venezuelan Refugee and Migrant Flow Monitoring at Peru's Tumbes Border, Q2 2021

UNHCR Peru's flow monitoring data analyzes the movement dynamics, protection needs, and vulnerabilities of Venezuelan refugees and migrants at the border. The data, collected in the second quarter of 2021, focuses on families using irregular routes and informal transportation. Results are not statistically representative but serve as a general indicator of trends to inform humanitarian response design.

Use Cases

• Assessing protection risks based on the use of irregular routes and informal transportation.
• Informing humanitarian logistics and response planning based on identified vulnerabilities.

Strengths
