Jesuit Report on Missing Migrants: a 291% increase in 2021. An increasing number of people are attempting to cross into Mexico (according to the latest news, a caravan of 15,000 people set out from Honduras).
Relatives of the missing say they find help and support from Mexico’s Jesuit Migrant Service (SJM- Mexico).
The Missing Migrants Search Programme of the Jesuit Migrant Service is a unique project. In this context, the first “Report on the Disappearance of Migrants in Mexico” was published a few weeks ago by SJM Mexico.
The International Organisation for Migration’s (IOM) Missing Migrants Project indicates that over 6,150 people have died or disappeared in the period January 2014 – March 2022. It should be noted that Mexico holds the sad world record of more than 100,000 people registered as missing or disappeared, which includes missing migrants, according to official figures.
