Debate
Free with pre-booking
Helena Maleno, founder of the collective Caminando Fronteras, Soda Niasse, human rights activist, and Oussman Ba, head of the psychosocial team of the Diocesan Delegation of Migration, talk about the situation on the Euro-African Western Border in a conversation moderated by the researcher of the CIDOB Blanca Garcés.
The Euro-African Western Border has been one of the most important migration routes to Europe for decades, and also one of the deadliest in the world. Since 2002, the collective Caminando Fronteras has helped thousands of migrants by alerting Maritime Rescue patrols to shipwrecks and by putting names and faces to the drama of the border through its Rights Observatory. In the report "Víctimas de la necrofrontera 2018-2022", the collective analyzes for the first time, from quantitative and qualitative research, the impact of the last five years of border control policies on the lives of the people who transit them. Coinciding with the international presentation of the report, this session will discuss the importance of reclaiming memory, justice and reparation when addressing the human impact of migration policies.
Moderators: Blanca Garcés
Participants: Helena Maleno, Soda Niasse, Oussman Ba
