Colombia is offering temporary protective status for up to one million undocumented Venezuelan migrants who fled their country because of an economic and political crisis that has led to food shortages and hyperinflation. 

The new permits enable Venezuelan migrants to work in the country legally and access important life benefits.  

CGTN’s Michelle Begue reports from Bogota.
