As the country continues to be mired in a political-constitutional crisis following the July 2024 presidential elections and the January 2025 presidential inauguration, one in four Venezuelans, over 7 million people, remain in need of humanitarian assistance.
As leader of the Protection and the Shelter, Energy and NFIs Clusters, UNHCR is targeting 2.7 million vulnerable Venezuelans affected by the crisis. UNHCR is also leading the response to growing returns to Venezuela and displacement within the country, as well as to the protection needs of refugees, asylum-seekers and people at risk of statelessness. While refugees and migrants continue to face protection risks along displacement routes, new protection profiles have emerged as a result of the political crisis.
