151-page report documenting the difficulties that migrant children fleeing from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador face while seeking asylum in Mexico.An estimated 17,000 unaccompanied migrant children fleeing gang violence came to Mexico in 2015, according to Human Rights Watch, quoting the UNHCR. The group said half of them were eligible for asylum, but only 52 actually received refugee status. “On paper, Mexican law appears to provide every protection for children who have fled their home countries in fear of their lives,” says Michael Garcia Bochenek, senior children’s rights counsel at Human Rights Watch. “But only a handful actually receive asylum, reflecting that even though Central American children and adults face serious threats, the government is not giving adequate consideration to their claims.” Credit: YouTube/HumanRightsWatch">
