Sizilien als Baustein der europäischen Abschottungspolitik

In Palermo, borderline-europe monitors the migration route across the central Mediterranean, opposes the criminalization of people on the move and sea rescue, and raises awareness of the situation of migrants and refugees arriving in Italy.

In fall 2024, borderline-europe launched a monitoring project to implement the reforms of the Common European Asylum System(CEAS) in Sicily. This project monitors the situation of people detained in closed border centers, hotspots and CPRs (deportation centers) in Italy (especially in Sicily) as well as in the Italian centers in Albania.

borderline-europe is an NGO based in Berlin and Palermo that has been engaged in civil resistance against European migration and border policies since 2007. We draw attention to human rights violations and racist border structures.
