The 10 Best Articles on Refugees and Migration 46/2017

November 21, 2017 - Open Migration
Libya: how can we look the other way, in the light of the UN statements and the evidence of a full-blown slave trade, uncovered by a CNN report? Also: death on the high seas and lives lost at the borders; the forgotten tragedy of Manus Island, the genocide of the Rohingya and the unheard voices of North Korean refugees.

The 10 Best Articles on Refugees and Migration 45/2017

November 14, 2017 - Open Migration
The death toll in the Mediterranean is still rising, and an incident that cost 50 lives highlighted the recklessness of the Libyan Coast Guard, backed by Italy and the EU. Also: the Italian asylum system is still inadequate, and asylum seekers are facing a lottery. Refugee camps in Europe are still unequipped for the winter, while solidarity crimes are rampant. Last: still not enough is being done for the Rohingya, who are victims of a genocide that no one wants to call by its true name.

The 10 Best Articles on Refugees and Migration 44/2017

November 7, 2017 - Open Migration
This week, we begin our web-review from the farthest places. First we’ll cover the hell on Manus Island, where Australia detained and then abandoned asylum seekers, and the underreported tragedy of the Rohingya, caught between ethnic cleansing in Myanmar and closing doors in Bangladesh. We then return to the humanitarian disasters near home: the consequences of externalising migration to Libya and the neverending emergency in Calais. Last, we look at the roles art, technology and cities are playing in helping refugees integrate.

The 10 Best Articles on Refugees and Migration 43/2017

October 31, 2017 - Open Migration
While there is cause to celebrate the success of the Ero Straniero campaign (with its 85.000 signatures collected to change Italy’s migration policy), the general situation in the country is marked by daily instances of racist violence and abuse, amid the public’s indifference. Also: the hell of detention camps in Libya, the never-ending story of Calais, resignation syndrome in Sweden, refugees in limbo on Manus Island, the genocide of the Rohingya and the deaths of refugees as international crime. Last: an interactive map to learn about the arms trade in Europe and how it affects the “refugee crisis”.

The 10 Best Articles on Refugees and Migration 42/2017

October 24, 2017 - Open Migration
We open this week with good news: the European Parliament backed a courageous proposal to reform the Dublin Regulation, which would mark a “Copernican revolution” in the common European asylum system. Refugees in limbo: from Sicily, where they are targeted by organised crime, to Calais, where the humanitarian emergency is still very much a live a year on from the “final evacuation”, to Serbia, where closed borders are leaving refugees exposed to violence and abuse at the hands of border officers. Finally, we talk about the tragedy of returns to Turkey and Syria, and we conclude with a reflection on how wrong it is to assume that all refugees just want to go home.

The 10 Best Articles on Refugees and Migration 41/2017

October 17, 2017 - Open Migration
In the face of an ongoing “crisis”, an “emergency” and a structural phenomenon, the responses are still inadequate despite time and money having been invested; from the burning issue of Libya (between the explosive conditions in the country and the failure of Italy’s dangerous strategy) to the discomforting situation in Italy (where a general election is about to affect policies and refugees die because of flaws in the system). As Italy sees its final chance to reform citizenship laws, the US are cracking down hard on refugees and migrants. Finally, we cannot be silent on the ignored genocide of the Rohingya. On a lighter note, we also cover recent films on migrant and refugees.

The 10 Best Articles on Refugees and Migration 40/2017

October 10, 2017 - Open Migration
The disastrous EU policies in Africa - in Libya and beyond - and the drama of deaths at sea and human rights violations at Italy’s borders. Also: the Rohingya ethnic cleansing in Myanmar, the crushed dreams of the Daca’s dreamers and the tragic fate of Afghan returnees. This and more in our weekly web-review.

The 10 Best Articles on Refugees and Migration 39/2017

October 3, 2017 - Open Migration
Italy is actually paying Libyan people smugglers to slow down migrants, say the New York Times and the Washington Post. Also: citizenship laws, Germany and refugees after the election, the new Black Sea route (which does not warrant talks of an invasion in Romania), the first resettlements of refugees from the Australian detention islands, the tragedy of the Rohingya and Trump’s policy of fear against immigrants. This and more in our weekly web-review.
