Venezuela emergency
A powerful earthquake has struck Venezuela — a country already living through one of the world's largest displacement crises.
This disaster hits a population already stretched to a breaking point. Almost 7 million Venezuelans have fled in recent years. Now, for those who remain, a fragile situation has become an emergency — with urgent need for shelter, clean water and protection.
UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, leads the protection response in Venezuela. Our teams are on the ground delivering shelter and relief to those hit hardest.
