Grant Description

The community information hubs, which took place from April to August 2024 in the provinces of Panama, Panama Oeste, Chiriqui, Herrera and Colon, provided free and individualized legal guidance and orientation to migrants residing in the country, in addition to providing complete accompaniment during the migratory regularization processes.

In partnership with the Fundacion Activados Panama and universities, embassies and consulates, advice and guidance were provided through a group of lawyers to more than 1,200 migrants regarding requirements for migratory and labor regularization in Panama. As a result, 278 people completed the regularization process.
