According to official figures from Migración Colombia by the end of June 2019, there were more than 1.4 million Venezuelan refugees and migrants living in Colombia. The majority of people have settled in the border departments of La Guajira and Norte de Santander, continuing to cities along the Car...ibbean coast, or larger cities inland such as Medellin and Bogotá. Significant numbers of Venezuelans continue to cross Colombia by foot, heading for larger cities with more opportunities and better services or towards the southern border with Ecuador to continue their onward journey to a third country. Refugees and migrants arrive in Colombia with immediate humanitarian needs including access to safe accommodation, food, basic health care, but the prolonged nature of their displacement also requires longer term solutions including access to formal employment, education and social integration. The Interagency Group for Mixed Migration Flows (GIFMM) works closely with the Government at both the national level, and across 11 of the most affected departments, to deliver direct emergency assistance, protection, socio-economic integration activities and seeks to build the capacity of the host government.

L’inaccessibilité géographique et financière aux structures de soins est
entre autres des facteurs limitant le nombre de bénéficiaires. D’où la nécessité
de mettre en place un centre ophtalmologique.
L’objectif étant de rendre les services de soi...ns oculaires accessibles à nos
populations afin de réduire les causes majeures de la cécité. Une réponse que
nous estimons adéquate aux besoins de la communauté afin de permettre aux
personnes avec déficience visuelle de s’intégrer dans le processus de
développement engagé dans le diocèse et même du pays entier.
Le coût du projet estimé est à apprécier par Lions Club Acacia et MK
ONLUS Italiana par rapport à sa pertinence et son intérêt pour les bénéficiaires.
C’est pourquoi en tant qu’une organisation oeuvrant dans la lutte contre
la cécité sous toutes ses formes et de la pertinence de la présente activité qui
cadre avec les nobles missions de l’Eglise ainsi que du Ministère de la Santé,
nous sollicitons un appui adéquat pour la mise en place de cette structure et
son équipement au profit des bénéficiaires.
