COVID-19 Global Thematic Update #2
Impact of COVID-19 on protection risks for refugees and migrants
This is the second of a new series of global thematic updates on 4Mi data collected remotely by MMC about the impact of COVID-19 on refugees and migrants travelling along mixed migration routes in Africa, Asia and Latin America. After the initial roll-out of our adapted 4Mi survey focusing on the immediate impact of the pandemic in April, we moved into a new data collection phase in July, further zooming in on the impact of the pandemic on mixed migration, including migrant smuggling, drivers of mixed migration and movement decision-making, and protection. This second monthly thematic update focuses on the impact of COVID-19 on protection risks for refugees and migrants (arbitrary arrest and detention, deportation, theft, bribery and extortion, domestic violence, sexual exploitation, labour exploitation).
