UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential. Across 190 countries and territories we work for every child everywhere every day to build a better world for everyone. And we never give up. For every child a champion. The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child everywhere in everything the organization does — in programs in advocacy and in operations. The equity strategy emphasizing the most disadvantaged and excluded children and families translates this commitment to children’s rights into action. For UNICEF equity means that all children have an opportunity to survive develop and reach their full potential without discrimination bias or favoritism. To the degree that any child has an unequal chance in life — in its social political economic civic and cultural dimensions — her or his rights are violated. There is growing evidence that investing in the health education and protection of a society’s most disadvantaged citizens — addressing inequity — not only will give all children the opportunity to fulfill their potential but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries.

In addition and despite the 2016 Peace Agreement conflict and armed violence continue to uproot Colombians (an estimated 955000 people newly displaced by the internal conflict since November 2016) and in a growing and worrying trend also Venezuelans and other nationalities. Afro-Colombians and indigenous people continue to be disproportionally affected by large-group displacement events and confinements particularly in the Pacific Coast. UNHCR and partners work to strengthen preventive actions as well as to respond to emergencies providing protection and solutions for the people with and for whom UNHCR works. Over 2.4 million Venezuelans who live in Colombia have registered to benefit from the Temporary Protection Status (TPS) issued by the Government of Colombia in February 2021. The TPS provides a 10-year protection status and access to a full range of rights including healthcare education formal employment and financial inclusion. More than 1.6 million permits have been delivered however challenges remain in terms of access to rights and services. Xenophobia against Venezuelans persists as misinformation and the perceptions that Venezuelans will take away job opportunities from Colombians fuel general discontent. UNHCR supports the TPS roll-out and believes it is a promising pathway for addressing the vulnerable situation of Venezuelan refugees and migrants and continues to work towards durable solutions. Mixed movements of refugees and migrants continue to increase in the region including more than 240000 transiting through the Darien in 2022 and up to 400000 persons estimated for 2023.
