Migratory processes and shelter networks in Mexico

  • Rafael Alonso Hernández

In Mexico, irregular international migration processes have historically been accompanied by civil society organizations, which have directly assisted migrants and refugees in their transit or stay in the different states of the country and have also generated political and social advocacy processes to guarantee access to human rights. This proposal offers an analysis and reflection on the changes in migration dynamics in Mexico, focusing particularly on the emergence of humanitarian spaces for the care of migrants and refugees, and their articulation in networks and collectives, to become key actors of hospitality and solidarity for migrant populations in the country. To this end, we analyze information generated from our own participation in humanitarian activism, with the support of desk research on this topic.
