7 In the regional context, the population from the North of Central America is highly mobile even following arrival in Mexico, which is a barrier for persons of concern to have information and access to services. In addition, SGBV (sex and gender violence) is a main reason that refugees flee their countries of origin and they continue to face serious risks of SGBV in transit. The creation of a network of safe spaces is fundamental to address the specific needs of survivors of SGBV in need of international protection. Safe Spaces provide a minimum package of basic services to SGBV survivors in a place, or during outreach and awarenessraising activities, which use a survivor-centered and best interests approach to foster an atmosphere of non-discrimination and inclusivity. Safe Spaces support coordination and strengthening of multi-sectoral services to improve a survivor s network of care.

9 Sanctuary Clinic Program The Sanctuary Clinic Program was created on February 2017, although since 2009 we have been providing care to the migrant population through other programs. The Sanctuary Clinic Program provides services at Condesa Specialized Clinic and at Condesa-Iztapalapa Specialized Clinic. The purpose is to speed up the access to treatment for migrants with HIV from Central America and other countries as well as returning Mexicans to the country. Service integration is done quickly and personalized for all services at both clinics.

25 Interagency contributions (good practices) Currently, Clínica Condesa is co-chairing with UNHCR the safe spaces network in Mexico City. UNHCR, the Mexican Refugee Agency (COMAR), Clínica Condesa and partner NGOs including migrant shelters, regularly coordinate for cases with special needs, such as pregnant woman, LGBTI persons, persons with STIs/HIV. A special referral system was established for these cases. Awareness raising activities on sexual and reproductive health to persons of concern are also implemented, for example, Condesa Clinic along with partner NGOs and UNHCR organized a sexual and reproductive health fair in the migrant shelter Cafemín offering free HIV/ITS detection tests. In addition, UNHCR and COMAR gave a joint training to Condesa staff on identification of persons with international protection needs and the asylum process. In turn, Clínica Condesa offered a training to COMAR, UNHCR, and NGO partners on sexual health and HIV/STIs.
26 Conclusions Access to health services for the migrant population, specifically in HIV prevention and care, should be a Health System objective and should be audited by international organisms. The diagnosis and treatment of immigrants with HIV is a needed component of the strategy for epidemic control, for the prevention of Aids cases as well as death and for virus transmission prevention which is achieved when treatment is offered to persons with HIV (Treatment as Prevention).
27 Conclusions The Condesa and Condesa-Iztapalapa Clinics are safe spaces for the migrant population, repatriated, and refugees. Health services Access is necessary to guarantee the right to live, physical wellness, free transit, and evidently to health. The Young population is the age group with the highest need for HIV services, pregnancy care, and sexual violence, and at the same time, a population group with great mobility inside and outside country borders. The refusal of such services due to migratory status is a discriminatory act of grave consequences for world youth.
