The Vathy refugee camp was moved closed to Zervou, in a closed facility. Med'Equali Team chose not to develop a clinic inside this new camp as we refused to collaborate with this even more liberty-restricting system.
Many of our volunteers found that working with us was a life-changing experience in which they met many characters and faced many challenges.

European Parliament: Refugee camps on the Greek islands: situation and challengesOct. 26, 2020 by European Parliament, Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs
MEPs will quiz representatives of the European Commission and the German Presidency of the Council about the situation on the temporary Kara Tepe site, which houses most of the 12,000 people left homeless by the fire in Moria. They will also look into the challenges faced by the Greek authorities regarding reception of migrants and asylum-seekers and processing of their asylum claims. Recent revelations about Frontex staff and resources allegedly being involved in illegal pushbacks of asylum-seekers carried out by Greek border guards are also likely to be raised during the exchange of views. |
