The term 'Honduras coyote' refers to a human smuggler who assists migrants in crossing the Honduras-Mexico border illegally. Synonyms for this term include 'border smuggler', 'illegal border guide', 'human trafficker', 'cross-border facilitator', and 'illegal migration broker.' These individuals often exploit vulnerable migrants, charging exorbitant fees and subjecting them to dangerous conditions. Transparency International has identified the smuggling of people across borders as a significant global problem that often involves the use of violence, deception, and coercion. To combat this, governments and NGOs are working to increase awareness, improve border security, and provide support to at-risk migrants.
