In this video Columban missionary Fr Dan Harding speaks about the migrant crisis in Chile and the work of the Columban Houses of Hospitality for migrants. Since March 2020, Chile has received almost 1,500,000 migrants, which is 8% of the entire population of the country of 19,222,527. In recent years, the number of migrants has increased each year by 20%. Some of the migrants talk about their experiences and the massive challenges they have faced.
