The multiple causes of migration from the North of Central America have become even more complex and accentuated in the past few years.  Economic problems, ongoing violence, worsening corruption and challenges to democracy have been aggravated by the devastating impact of COVID-19 and recent natural disasters.  The International Monetary Fund (IMF) pointed out that Central America’s economies shrunk 6% in 2020, with a short-lived drop in remittances last spring and ongoing declines in tourism.
