This article aims to analyze the legal aspects of Venezuelan migration in Brazil, after the worsening political-economic crisis in the country. The methodology employed was deductive, using bibliographic research, documentary and empirical expositions. Although the 1951 Convention inaugurated a phase of building international legal protection for refugees, it does not provide answers to current problems that lead individuals to flee their countries, such as widespread violence and the total lack of conditions in some states. in providing dignity to his people. This is the case of Venezuelans, who migrated to Brazil after 2014, due to the severe crisis that is going through the country. Following the traditional legal definition of the Convention, the National Refugee Committee in Brazil did not recognize them as such, which deprived them of institutionalized legal protection. It is believed that each new approach to the dynamics of forced migration will broaden the understanding parameters of the challenges brought by this theme, which calls for more than rhetorical figures.
