| description |
In 2015 and 2016, migrant flows into the
European Union (EU) surged, with Greece and Italy the main
entry points. Many of the migrants applied for international
protection in Europe, becoming asylum seekers. This spike in
EU asylum seekers, as well as the increasing numbers of
those granted refugee status, brought a need for information
on who they are their sociodemographic characteristics;
their education and work experience; their experience on the
journey to Italy and Greece; and what it cost them not only
financially but also physically and emotionally to get
there. This study took a rigorous approach to ensure that it
produced hard data to support policy decisions, decisions
made not only in receiving countries but also in countries
of origin and transit. This report then, contributes to
knowledge of aspects of migration and forced displacement,
but much more has yet to be learned. |
