Our Mission

We are an organization that strives to provide comprehensive care networks to the migrant community, whether in transit, refugees, deportees or asylum seekers, always taking as a starting point their needs, regional resources and socio-political conditions in which it is necessary to influence. We provide a shelter for women and children in transit where we include particularly vulnerable groups such as black, indigenous and LGBTI communities, and people with disabilities. In all our practices we seek horizontality, healing and connection through art and culture.

We want to be a first class shelter and community center, offering free access to the services and programs necessary for a dignified migration from an intersectional, inclusive, supportive and collaborative feminist approach. To offer a safe space, free of violence and discrimination based on gender, race, nationality, class, religion, age or abilities. To adapt effectively to the realities we face, promoting collaborative work with other like-minded organizations. Continue to support research projects and maintain our commitment to be part of networks of political advocacy and migratory resistance.

Our objective is to accompany the population in the access to services and rights, promoting a community model based on dignity, autonomy. 

Border Line seeks to be more than a shelter, it is a healing space on the path of the women and children we receive, always with their voice at the center, respecting their autonomy and in mutual support. Our services are available to people housed in our facilities or newly arrived in the city, in street situation and, when required, we visit other shelters and camps.
