In Venezuela, some refugees and members of the host community face protection risks that impact their access to services and welfare. These risks increase their vulnerability and create new challenges.
In this context, HIAS helps people to rebuild their lives with dignity through activities in the following areas: mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS), ending violence against women and girls, legal protection, child protection, economic inclusion, and water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH).
HIAS offers services to strengthen the individual resources and capacities of its participants and communities by addressing needs, identifying opportunities and building solutions that facilitate sustainable changes in their lifestyle and foster their empowerment. Our approach is holistic, protection focused, and human centered.
HIAS Venezuela supports groups that face greater risks, such as women with dependents, children and adolescents, survivors of violence, the elderly, people with disabilities, people from indigenous communities, and others.
