Our most recent investigation on how US immigration policy foments organized crime on the US-Mexico border has generated discussion across Latin America.
Media outlets including El Economista and Infobae have cited our work to explain which are the criminal groups involved in the trafficking of migrants, and how immigration policies have helped generate this lucrative human smuggling economy.
Victoria Dittmar, one of the investigation’s authors, was interviewed by NTN24, where she discussed how organized crime groups exploit migrants on the US southern border.
