Summary: The political, economical and social situation of Colombia for decades caused the migration of its citizens towards Venezuelan territory, this was deepened by the armed conflict. Venezuela was characterized since the fifties as being a country that received immigrants, but ceased to be an attractive destination from the eighties because of the economical and political crisis that the country passed through, a time from which the first  waves of Venezuelan migrants can be recognized. However it is from the year 2015 when a growth of this phenomenon is evidenced as a consequence of the deepening of the political, economical and social crisis that Venezuelan society was going through, leading to an impoverishment of life conditions of a large proportion of the population, a situation that has turned Colombia into the nearest and most accesible migratory option for Venezuelans looking for better opportunities.
