Children drop out of school to work, and a large proportion of households go without basic goods.ĭespite the apparent increase in funding to support NGOs in 2021, the response capacity remains insufficient to respond to critical needs affecting millions of Venezuelans across the country. People often rely on informal employment, smuggling, enrolment in armed groups, and transactional sex work. Negative coping mechanisms are still in place, particularly in the border states with Colombia and Brazil. The use of illegal and often dangerous border crossings routes continues to be a common practice. Since the outbreak of Covid-19 – Venezuela has been witnessing an increasing number of returnees from bordering countries. The collapse of basic services, the loss of income opportunities, and an economy that continues to present year-to-year inflation of approximately 500% are the leading promoters of the displacement crisis, which includes internal displacement, pendular migration, and the outflow of 4.6 million Venezuelans into neighbouring countries. The crisis in Venezuela remains unsolved and has worsened with the Covid-19 pandemic.
