Donor Trip: In October, USA for IOM conducted a successful field visit to IOM Ecuador with a delegation of IOM leadership and US philanthropists.  This visit provided an exceptional opportunity to assess and witness the unique dynamic of a destination and transit country with immense humanitarian needs. As a direct result of this trip, USA for IOM will be able to partner with IOM Ecuador’s efforts to provide medical assistance to migrants with disabilities, build local capacity to support their developmental needs, and strengthen Venezuelan migrants’ access to sustainable livelihoods in Ecuador through expanded entrepreneurship training, small business start-up support and capital investment.    

Entrepreneurship in Movement: Ecuador hosts nearly half a million Venezuelan migrants and refugees. USA for IOM contributed to a current IOM Ecuador project funded by the IOM Development Fund (IDF) supporting entrepreneurship training, providing seed capital for vulnerable Venezuelan migrants and local Ecuadorians, and promoting social cohesion, efficient, stronger, and more sustainable microenterprises while simultaneously strengthening the capacity of Ecuador’s Ministry of Economic and Social Inclusion (MIES). This contribution is a part of USA for IOM’s Entrepreneurship in Movement Initiative which, with the support of our private sector partners such as the Citi Foundation in Ecuador, is making a difference in migrant communities by creating opportunities for self-sufficiency and linking migrants to decent and stable employment.
