Understanding Migrant Integration Through Data

The VenReP Survey examines the effects of the PEP regularization program on Venezuelan migrants in Colombia, focusing on how legal status influences migrants’ well-being, the host country’s economic stability, social integration, and access to essential services.  By tracking thousands of migrants over time, the study provides critical insights for policymakers, organizations, and governments aiming to design effective migration policies
