Every day, hundreds of thousands of migrants risk their lives to cross one of the world’s most dangerous migration routes: the Darién Gap.

This video includes some voices that are part of this daunting journey; migrants, locals, smugglers, and criminal organisations. It also presents recommendations to governments on how to tackle the situation.
