Guatemala

Working Group - "Guate te incluye" Project

The Working Group of the "Guate Te Incluye" Project (lit. Guatemala Includes You) initiated a dialogue process between private stakeholders, public institutions, and civil society, about labor insertion of Guatemalan citizens who have been deported from the United States. The group's objectives for the first phase of the project were defined around inclusion and entrepreneurship. Through an initiative dedicated to providing job search support, this participatory project also accompanies deported migrants (who are often criminalized) in their psychosocial process of integration. In addition, a long-term goal ist the creation of a National Plan for the reintegration of the population that has faced a forced return.
