About Us What is Somos Colmena?

IOM promotes Somos Colmena, a virtual community that offers verified information to help you make safe migration decisions.

On this website you can find the communication for development (C4D) campaigns in communities in Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Costa Rica, Panama and the Dominican Republic.

We engage with communities to address their information needs on migration. Our main objective is to generate positive social change through improvements in people's knowledge, attitudes and practices.
