CONCEPT
In 2019 the ‘Migrant Protection Protocols’ (MPP) caused migrant families to wait in Mexico at dangerous border crossings. Thousands ended up at a tent camp in cartel-controlled Matamoros, while waiting for a chance to gain entry to the US and seek legal citizenship. This data set was part of a RAÍCES investigative piece designed to shed light on the inhumane conditions created by these protocols.
