Between the 21st and 23rd of 2023, in the city of Tijuana, Mexico, the II International Conference "PROMOTING LIFE ON THE BORDERS: Civil Society's Impact on the Empowerment of Migrants and Refugees and Their Right to Have Rights" was held by the Centro Scalabriniano de Estudos Migratórios (CSEM) in partnership with the Ibero-American University of Tijuana, Instituto Madre Assunta of Tijuana, SMR, (Scalabrinianas Misión con Migrantes y Refugiados) of Mexico City, Scalabrinian Foundation of Rome and the Jesuit Service to Refugees, Mexico, with the support of Weltkirche, MISEREOR, and ADVENIAT. One of the main objectives of this event was to strengthen the capacity of civil society at the regional, national, and international levels in promoting the protagonism of migrants and refugees in defense of their rights, which is the guiding principle of CSEM's activities established by the institution's Core Guideline. In this sense, more than just providing ready-made answers, the II International Conference of CSEM sought to stimulate debate regarding the management of the challenges posed by the migratory phenomenon, especially in the South-South, Latin American, and Caribbean contexts. This book celebrates the encounters, debates, and exchanges held at the II International Conference of CSEM.
