Trauma and economic displacement: psychological consequences and interventions among Venezuelan refugees in the Americas
Overview
This review conceptualizes the Venezuelan refugee crisis as a form of war-like displacement resulting from economic collapse and institutional breakdown. It synthesizes epidemiological data to highlight elevated rates of depression, anxiety, and trauma-related symptoms among Venezuelan migrants across the Americas. The article examines low-intensity, community-based interventions while outlining structural barriers to care access and sustainability.
