INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO
In this episode, we focus on unaccompanied children and youth migrants. We know that the challenges faced by migrants are numerous. Those challenges and vulnerability are heightened for children and youth on the move due to their age.
Young migrants have reported severe challenges, such as lack of food, poor shelter, health issues, theft, lost or stolen documents, and deprivation of liberty.
Tune in as we bring further attention to the plight of these young people and the continued complexities of global migration.
To all the unaccompanied, separated, missing, and unaccounted-for children and young migrants out there, you are not forgotten.
