1. Workshop: Assisted voluntary return to Latin America with a focus on El Salvador, Venezuela and Colombia
The first workshop of the Transnational Exchange V project about voluntary return to Latin America took place online due to the on-going Covid-19 pandemic on the 10th and 11th of November 2020. We would like to give you some ideas or hints on what to discuss with Latin American returnees during your AVRR counselling session as a result of our workshop. We hope that these four points can stimulate beneficial conversations with your clients and hopefully lead to a sustainable return. Please bear in mind that the return conditions and challenges differ greatly depending on the country of return.
