Working with national governmental partners from Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador, a new report launched by UNDP’s InfoSegura looks at three central themes: Human Mobility, development and citizen security. Among the main messages of this report is the fact that the decision to migrate is a confluence of vulnerabilities and threats, which can be aggravated by the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. The ultimate goal of this initiative is to ensure data usefulness and to contribute to improving people’s lives through evidence-based public policies for peaceful, just, and inclusive societies where no one is left behind. On the same topic, UNDP’s InfoSegura shared information with the Trinational Project for Resilience and Social Cohesion in the North of Central America, made up of UNDP, UNHCR and IOM, through a webinar presentation. The document calls for action on support for public policies and proposes a programmatic approach based on the UNDP Regional Strategy on Human Mobility and Sustainable Development in Latin America and the Caribbean. This presentation brings a concise vision of the inter-links and main findings between human mobility, citizen security, and development in the countries of the northern triangle of Central America.
