In recent years, Latin America has become a prominent region for migratory movements. Whether it is the Venezuelan or Haitian refugee crisis or labor migration to Brasil, legal and illegal migration within the region or beyond, they significantly shape the daily lives of Latin Americans and the perspectives of those living there. Moreover, if we examine the routes leading to the United States and Europe, those extending beyond them as well. But why do millions leave their homes behind? Is Latin American migration intra- or intercontinental in nature? Which are the largest host states in the region? And what are the perspectives for resolving crises that sometimes last decades?
