| Sumario: | The article examines the challenges and opportunities for humanitarian governance in the Cali-Baja border region, focusing on migration between Tijuana and San Diego. Based on a focus group entitled "Vision, Challenges and Proposals for the Cali-Baja Border Region," held on November 22, 2023, the study brings together expert perspectives on regional dynamics, problems, and potential solutions. It highlights that the region is experiencing unprecedented human mobility, influenced by Biden administration policies such as humanitarian visas and Temporary Protected Status for Venezuelans, marking a contrast with the previous administration. The analysis underscores the importance of effective coordination among diverse actors to manage irregular human mobility. However, obstacles are faced in coherence and effectiveness in communication and collaboration, resulting in fragmented humanitarian responses. Challenges include limited shelter capacity and human rights protection, necessitating greater cooperation between governmental and non-governmental organizations. The lack of clear leadership and a shared rights agenda among actors has led to divergent approaches. |
