Description
What does 'refuge' mean: bare rescue from persecution and drowning in the Mediterranean Sea? Does it mean proper accommodations, registration and assessment of requests for asylum? Giusi and Rosario have set up a "Place of Arrival" in the Calabrian hinterlands that goes beyond the obligatory minimum. Instead of living in a centralized camp, 76 asylum seekers are currently being accommodated in several apartments standing empty in the village of Camini. Rather than pass their time in waiting, recently arrived refugees can work within the local framework of the fallow agricultural industry.
