Social exclusion of Peruvians towards Venezuelans migrants

The social exclusion that has been lived for a little less than three years in Peruvian territory, has been reaching its highest peak, which is prejudiced and very annoying in the society of our country, since in many ways it complicates us and we tend to be singled out. As a racist country, this would bring consequences in political, economic and bad image environments for our republic because authorities such as the UN prohibit these types of acts, which are reprehensible throughout the world, being a violation of the rights of migrants Venezuelans residing in our country.

The exclusion of Peruvians towards Venezuelans is very notorious in the economic, social, political and cultural spheres within society. Many of these acts bring denied access to health needs and services, home, jobs, a very limited education and an economy that is severely unstable, which ends with little dependence on Venezuelans and these end up being an instability for Peruvian territory, in addition , this also implies the development and well-being that they cannot have due to many factors that they themselves live with on a day-to-day basis. The little integration of the migrant population in the Peruvian has always been linked to discrimination, thus, 62% of the Venezuelan migrant population claims to have been discriminated against since they arrived in Peru, resulting in ordinary Peruvians He tends to be discriminatory, not only towards his own Peruvian brothers, but also towards Venezuelans. In this scenario, the existence of discriminatory stereotypes and beliefs ends up being an abuse towards them.

In a survey carried out by various entities that Peruvian society does not accept Venezuelan migrants, since according to Peruvians they do not accept them because they have a criminal profile, they have labor competition, the overload of public services, this rejection is no coincidence, since it is It is giving a generalized perception that the vast majority of migrants are people who come to harm and ruin the country, that is, to make problems that have been occurring for many years worse or grow even more.

Achieving integration between the Venezuelan and Peruvian population, the truth is that it would be a great achievement for us as a society together with migrants from a sister country, always working for the well-being of all, with precautions, but with less prejudice towards people of that nationality, being able to integrate one country with another, the truth is that it is not easy, but having the willingness of both parties, we believe that certain agreements could be reached for the population, more so for Peruvians, since we are in our territory and we have to live with the question of what will happen from now on with Venezuelan migrants? This is an issue that has to end immediately, the good of society and Peru are in one way or another at risk, and this is increasing in figures and facts, the society in which we should live is one of respect and progress so that together we can get ahead, we don't know if in a year or two, but we will achieve it.
