108 Thousand Migrants Have Entered Chiapas in Three Months

The migration catastrophe continues with all of the knock-on effects that it is having in the state of Chiapas. Official figures from the National Institute of Migration put the number of migrants at over 100,000 in the first three months of this year. The real numbers are, of course, much higher. As part of its ongoing collaboration with the Frayba human rights organization, Schools for Chiapas is currently recruiting volunteers to work at the Salto del Agua migrant center in Chiapas.

WOMEN AND AUTONOMY – Hearts of Freedom and Justice

February 22nd saw the launch of the Women and Autonomy campaign by Frayba at Taniperla Restaurant in San Cristóbal de Las Casas. The event was attended by women HR defenders from Frayba, women from the frontline communities in Chiapas, Schools for Chiapas and international solidarity workers. As part of their campaign, Frayba launched a new section on their website, which we translate for you here.

In our ongoing collaboration with Frayba, Schools for Chiapas is currently recruiting civil observer volunteers to work in communities under attack or threat, where women are often the main victims in these circumstances.
