Hi everyone, and welcome to this podcast , coming to you from the Canary Islands to listeners around the globe.
In this episode , we share stories of resilience, courage, and hope—tales of people who leave everything behind in search of a better future, while facing cultural, legal, and personal challenges along the way. Their journeys remind us that behind every migration is not just a statistic, but a human story.
Voluntary return refers to a person's decision to return to their country of origin voluntarily, generally when they find themselves in an irregular migration situation in another country. This option is promoted by several governments and international organizations as an alternative to forced deportation, providing migrants with a more dignified and organized return.
There are voluntary return programs that include:
Financial assistance: Some organizations or governments may offer financial support to facilitate the return journey.
Social support and reintegration: Assistance is offered for the migrant's reintegration in their country of origin, such as vocational training, access to health services, or even psychological support.
Avoiding deportation: Unlike deportation, voluntary return allows the person to return without the stigma of having been expelled from the host country.
This type of return can be an attractive option for migrants who wish to return to their home country without facing the legal consequences of deportation. Furthermore, it can help alleviate the burden on immigration systems and reduce pressure on receiving countries.
And that concludes this today's episode, see you in the next one!
