The methodological design consists of 45 interviews of men that have made it across the borders and those who have made failed attempts, and the families of those who have lost members due to harsh ecological conditions of the Sonora Desert. The interviews take place along the transit route, not so much at shelters, but along the routes, close to the US-Mexico border, and in the US. The data is used to shed light on the human experience of migration rather than the politicized nature of it.
