The lack of knowledge and understanding of migrant associations from Latin American countries in general and from the Andean countries of Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, in particular, is the primary motivation for this study. It seeks to fill this gap by examining the origins, aims and main activities of Andean migrant associations from the above-mentioned countries in the Cantons of Geneva and Vaud in Switzerland to understand the degree to which they contribute to the integration of Andean migrants in their host country, and engage with their countries of origin. This study seeks to also understand Andean migrant associations\u2019 structure, capacity development, and interactions with other migrant associations, civic organizations and public authorities.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><strong>Keywords<\/strong> : Migrant associations, Integration, Homeland engagements, Solidarity<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>&#8220;Les rares \u00e9tudes sur la migration de l\u2019Am\u00e9rique latine en Suisse ont principalement port\u00e9 sur les communaut\u00e9s, un peu moins sur les individus, et peu de recherches ont \u00e9t\u00e9 consacr\u00e9es \u00e0 la participation des migrants latino-am\u00e9ricains aux associations de migrants de leur pays d\u2019origine. La principale motivation de cette \u00e9tude est le manque de connaissances et de compr\u00e9hension des associations de migrants des pays d&#8217;Am\u00e9rique latine en g\u00e9n\u00e9ral et des pays andins de Bolivie, de Colombie, d&#8217;\u00c9quateur et du P\u00e9rou en particulier. Cette recherche cherche \u00e0 combler cette lacune en examinant les origines, les objectifs et les activit\u00e9s principales des associations de migrants andins des pays susmentionn\u00e9s situ\u00e9s dans les cantons de Gen\u00e8ve et de Vaud en Suisse, afin de comprendre dans quelle mesure elles contribuent \u00e0 l&#8217;int\u00e9gration des migrants andins dans le pays d&#8217;accueil et s&#8217;engagent avec leurs pays d&#8217;origine.
