General context of the Project<\/h1>\n

Greece has been a longstanding country of first arrival and transit for refugees and migrants. \u00a0Since 2014, approximately 1.259.246 million refugees transited Greece via land and sea, and 2,051 died in the attempt. Asylum-seekers at the Reception and Identification Centres (RICs) on the Greek Islands have to cope with hard-living conditions. Having survived dangerous journeys in search of safety in Europe, they have been trapped on the Islands for years, exacerbating feelings of insecurity, loneliness and hopelessness.<\/p>\n

On Lesvos, on the 9 September 2020, a fire broke down in the notorious Moria camp, \u00a0urning it to the ground and leaving thirteen thousand people displaced. With financial \u00a0(250+ million) and technical support from the European Commission, Greek authorities are constructing fences and concrete walls around existing camps, building closed camps in remote locations on the Aegean islands, and introducing legislation to further restrict the freedom of movement in and access to camps.<\/p>\n

Following the relocation of many recognized refugees to the mainland, currently, it hosts approximately 2119 people, 86% of the 2340 asylum seekers and refugees residing on Lesvos.<\/p>\n

The majority of the population are from Afghanistan (68%), Somalia (11%) and the Democratic Republic of Congo (5%) Women account for 19% of the population and children for 27%.<\/p>\n
