    World Bank grant for Colombia to help deal with Venezuelan refugees

    Resources “will help finance the significant fiscal effort Colombia is making to host and help the Venezuelan migrants,” Colombia's Minister Alberto Carrasquilla said

    Colombia will receive a US$ 31.5 million grant to help deal with the flood of refugees from neighbouring Venezuela, the World Bank announced on Friday Colombia has received about a third of 3.7 million refugees who have fled the worsening crisis in Venezuela in recent years - the most dramatic and fastest exodus in the world after war-torn Syria, according to the United Nations.
