A path to protection for uprooted kids in Mexico paid UNICEFUSA
This is a story about a teen from El Salvador who ultimately found safety and protection in Mexico with UNICEF’s help.
Mario was 16 and suffering from daily harassment and threats of violence from local gang members when he fled El Salvador with his uncle in late 2017. His mother supported the decision, but stayed behind. Murals at the Guatemala-Mexico border offer hope to migrants seeking safety and a better life:"Nothing on earth can stop us.""With the inclusion and protection of immigrants, we all win."Mario had been in the center for a few weeks when Hernández intervened on his behalf. After helping to secure his release to a shelter for migrant children, she also helped persuade government officials to consider a joint application for asylum for Mario and his uncle.
“This is what we mean when we say UNICEF provides technical assistance, advising the local actors who are in charge,” explains who spoke to Hernández at length about Mario’s case. “This assistance is needed, as the number of unaccompanied children entering Mexico has greatly increased.”
