Description
To examine the socioeconomic integration of Venezuelan migrants and refugees in the region, this report analyzes nonrepresentative, nonprobabilistic data from IOM Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) studies, as well as a variety of data from other surveys, reports, and additional research resources. The report explores five key dimensions of socioeconomic integration (sociodemographic profile, levels of economic inclusion, education, access to health care, and social cohesion) across five South American countries that together host more than 70 percent of the total Venezuelan migrant and refugee population worldwide. These are: Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru.

Description
The impact of the outflow of refugees and migrants from Venezuela is felt most keenly in Colombia. Across the 2,200-kilometer common border with seven formal and hundreds of informal crossing points, Colombia has been receiving over 50 per cent of refugees and migrants from Venezuela, including those who remain in the country as well as those who transit through the country for onward movement. Colombia is also receiving a significant number of its nationals returning from Venezuela, some of them having stayed in Venezuela for decades. The situation in Colombia is indeed complex, with different types of population movements taking place simultaneously, including pendular movements in the border area.
The arrival of refugees and migrants from Venezuela into Colombia has grown exponentially over the last few years. The number of those staying in the country rose from less than 39,000 at the end of 2015, to 1,032,000 at the end of September 2018, an increase of almost 2,550 per cent.21 Similarly, the number of Venezuelans transiting through Colombia towards Ecuador and onwards increased from 14,000 in 2015, to 511,000 in the first nine months of 2018, an increase of 3,550 per cent. In addition, there are over 300,000 Colombian returnees,22 with many of them requiring support for their socio-economic inclusion and safe reintegration.
