ANTECEDENTES:
La región de Mesoamericana es un importante corredor migratorio para flujos intra y extra-regionales. Las oportunidades laborales, la reunificación familiar y, de manera creciente, la violencia social son factores de esta migración, diferenciados a su vez por género y edad. Muchas personas migrantes viajan de manera irregular lo que provoca como efecto colateral un retorno, y principalmente forzado, de personas migrantes cada año, principalmente hacia México y los países que conforman el Triángulo Norte de Centroamérica.
