Summary/Abstract: Colombia is at the center of international interest due to its status as the main receiving country for Venezuelan nationals leaving their homeland due to the complex humanitarian emergency taking place there (Cartaya et al., 2020). Colombia has previously been known mainly for the internal displacement and exit of its own citizens (The Commission for the Clarification of Truth, Coexistence and Non-Repetition of Colombia, 2022, pp. 34-43). Now, the country is focused on developing a comprehensive migration policy, that grants access to rights and services to Venezuelan nationals and providesg the necessary tools to integrate immigrants in receiving communities.
