The Viacrucis del Migrante also known as Central American migrant caravan, organized by Pueblo Sin Fronteras are annual pilgrimage caravans of mostly Central American migrants travelling from the Guatemala–Mexico border into Mexico and/or toward the Mexico–United States border. Viacrucis caravans have historically been organized by the migrants themselves, with accompaniment by human rights defenders for protection from police abuse and criminal attacks, and to draw attention to the struggles and rights of all displaced peoples, including those of asylum-seekers. It has been supported by a cross-border coalition of social justice activists, community organizers, faith-based groups, and human rights advocates known as Pueblo Sin Fronteras, setting off during Holy Week since 2010.
