IOM - Migrants Monitoring - Trinidad & Tobago - September 2019

The twin-island State, Trinidad and Tobago, is situated 12 km (7 miles) northeast of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela (henceforth referred to as Venezuela) and this close geographic proximity has historically enabled migratory movements. Nevertheless, the sheer magnitude of current flowsfrom Venezuela into Trinidad and Tobago, is unparalleled.
