Abusos de grupos armados contra civiles colombianos y venezolanos en el noreste de Colombia.
Este informe se basa en una investigación realizada en el Catatumbo en abril de 2019. Entrevistamos a más de 80 personas, incluidas víctimas de abusos, sus familiares, líderes sociales, representantes e...clesiásticos, funcionarios de derechos humanos, autoridades locales, funcionarios judiciales y miembros de organizaciones humanitarias y de derechos humanos que trabajan en la zona. Algunas entrevistas se realizaron en Cúcuta, la capital del departamento de Norte de Santander, y otras telefónicamente. También tuvimos acceso a informes y estadísticas oficiales, publicaciones de organizaciones no gubernamentales e internacionales, y testimonios tomados por funcionarios públicos a casi 500 víctimas de abusos cometidos en el contexto del conflicto armado.

Large-Scale UN Response Needed to Address Health and Food Crises
This report is based on interviews with more than 150 health care professionals, Venezuelans seeking or in need of medical care who recently arrived in Colombia and Brazil, representatives from international and nongovernmental humani...tarian organizations. In addition, researchers analyzed data on the situation inside Venezuela from official sources, hospitals, international and national organizations, and civil society organizations.
We found a health system in utter collapse with increased levels of maternal and infant mortality; the spread of vaccine-preventable diseases, such as measles and diphtheria; and increases in numbers of infectious diseases such as malaria and tuberculosis (TB). Although the government stopped publishing official data on nutrition in 2007, research by Venezuelan organizations and universities documents high levels of food insecurity and child malnutrition, and available data shows high hospital admissions of malnourished children.

How WHO works to prevent drug use, reduce harm and improve safe access to medicines
Thousands of HIV-positive Venezuelans have been forced to leave the country, after facing discrimination and zero treatment options, according to UNAIDS.
Patients once received free ARV treatment under Venezuela’s National AIDS Program. In 2017, the country essentially ran out of ARVs—about 9 p...eople a day died from HIV-related illnesses that year.
“Today, HIV patients in Venezuela have three options: go untreated, buy the medication abroad or on the black market for large sums, or leave the country,” writes Gabriela Mesones Rojo.
The exodus of untreated Venezuelans could shift the course of the epidemic throughout the region.

Internally displaced children are twice invisible in global and national data. First, because internally displaced people (IDPs) of all ages are often unaccounted for. Second, because age-disaggregation of any kind of data is limited, and even more so for IDPs.
Planning adequate responses to meet... the needs of internally displaced children, however, requires having at least a sense of how many there are and where they are. This report presents the first estimates of the number of children living in internal displacement triggered by conflict and violence at the global, regional and national levels.
