Support Mexican families find their missing loved ones

by INTERNATIONAL COMMITTEE OF THE RED CROSS

Please visit our Intercross podcast website to learn about our work with what are known in Mexico as, colectivos, or groups of families and friends who unite to search for their missing loved ones and defend their rights.

We speak with Beatriz Adriana Martinez about her husband, Juan Alvarez Gil’s disappearance in 2013, to understand what a family goes through when a loved one goes missing and how these colectivos support Beatriz and the hundreds of thousands of other families.

We also speak with Marlene Herbig, an ICRC delegate with the Missing Persons Program in Mexico, who works to help those who are searching for their missing loved ones know their rights, and how and when to seek mental health counseling.
