Migrante App is a free, Spanish-language mobile platform created by Puntos de Encuentro to inform and guide people who, due to their work as activists, journalists, or human rights defenders, have suffered violence or repression and are forced to leave their country. Although it was initially designed for Nicaraguans, its content is useful for anyone in Latin America facing violence, political risks, or persecution.
What you'll find:
• News: Up-to-date and verified migration information, with links to the original source.
• Countries: A guide to legal options by country (visas, asylum, protection) explained in simple language.
• Organizations: A verified directory of institutions and organizations that offer legal advice, medical care, and comprehensive support.
• Legal guide and materials: Downloadable documents on rights, procedures, and legal frameworks.
• Videos and podcasts: Content to help you understand your rights and the migration process.
• Question assistant: Immediate answers to frequently asked questions and guidance on using the app.
Designed for ease of use, with simple navigation and quick access to the most important information, the Migrante App is continuously updated with current immigration regulations and is not a substitute for professional legal advice.
