Inauguration of the New USCRI Office for Latin America and the Caribbean

November 4, 2024

Last month, young refugees from South Sudan, Syria, Colombia, Honduras, and Venezuela, now studying and residing in Mexico, gathered in Barrio de la Estación, Aguascalientes, to celebrate the inauguration of the U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants Regional Office for Latin America and the Caribbean (USCRI).

USCRI´s Senior Vice President, AnnaMarie Bena, introduced the office as a regional hub to operate programs and advocate for the rights of refugees, migrants, and returnees across USCRI field offices in Mexico, El Salvador, and Honduras.

At the center of the event were the creative exhibitions from students and alumni of USCRI’s Habesha Complementary Pathways and Habesha Americas programs, which offer young refugees from around the world the opportunity to pursue higher education in Mexico.
