The growing numer of children in the border has developed a humanitarian crisis involving many actors, such as the children, the American government, the US border state governments, the Mexican government, the governments of Central America and many NGOs concerned by the problematic situation. The current paper seeks to analyze the origin and development of the crisis, as well as its consequences, and the actions that the actors mentioned above have taken, or not.</p> ER -
