VOICED : Child migrant crisis endures on Mexico's south border

The transcript follows the journey of Juan, a 16-year-old from Honduras, as he attempts to reach the United States in pursuit of the American dream. Despite being deported once, Juan is determined to escape the violence and economic hardship in his home country. The narrative highlights the dangers faced by migrants, including riding the perilous 'Beast' trains. It also discusses Mexico's Frontera Sur program aimed at curbing illegal immigration, which has led to increased detentions but not a resolution to the root causes of migration. Critics argue that the measures are insufficient, as many minors like Alberto continue to risk their lives for a chance at a better future.
