In my town and in all the region, often, migrants men come first to look at a job and when they work and have a house, their families come already in Italy. The children go to school and they try to be including in the comunity. In Italy they don't reach any financial support. Refugees are helped by the state, they have possibiliy to live in recidences.

1.5 Arriving in Europe

In Italy, migrants receive many state and religious and non-religious associations. In my city there is a very large reception center that hosts many migrants, have nice rooms with bath and bed always clean, hot meals, clothes, and money. Many work, others would like to bring their families to Europe.

What Nora says about Italy, if I have well understood, is a partial vision of the problem, from what she says it seem that in Italy all migrants are sleeping in the streets, this is probably true for some cases (borders with France...) but not for all... We also have many shelters and many volunteers and associations trying to build projects with migrants, and also some associations exploiting migrants to get money from the government...

In the video describes the difficulties faced by immigrants when they arrive in our country: a real obstacle course. In Calabria their condition varies from place to place. Many of them want to get to the Northern Europe because of the crisis that exists here in Italy or moved to meet their relatives or friends who are in other cities.

# data[].attributes.body
So many difficulties the migrants face after arriving in a different country: language, legislation related issues.

# data[].attributes.body
The main problems asylum seekers face are related to the language and the legislation system of each country. Therefore it is vital to have support from governmental and non-governmental organisations with regard to these two aspects. There are some initiaves and projects carried out in Greece in order to help them.

In Calabria there are 53 shelters. In some of them migrants live in very bad conditions and the situations in Rosarno is well known. Migrants conditions in Lamezia Terme are different. They live for some months up to a few years in decent shelters. They receive € 2.50 a day, this sum is usually given every 2/3 months so as to create a certain amount of money. SPRARs and CASes help them with the documents to be recognized as migrants. Many of them want to go to northern Europe, because of crisis here in Italy. Two of my students went to Germany. Another one lives in Lamezia in a private house and he works in a restaurant. The youngest of them is still studying and he lives with an Italian family. So, when migrants find a job they appreciate staying in my region because of the mild climate and the friendly people. Migrants  are very hard workers, highly appreciated by everybody. At Christmas and at Easter they have been involved in the decoration of our town. The situation is different in other parts of Calabria. The living, working and sanitary conditions of the several thousand migrants who arrive at the Piana di Gioia Tauro every year to harvest citrus fruits are consistently appalling. They are mainly from sub-Saharan Africa and are living in shanty towns or abandoned country cottages of the municipalities of Rosarno, San Ferdinando, Rizziconi and Taurianova.

Only recently  thefirst refugees or newly arrived migrants have being resettled in Portugal. And most of them are coming from Greece or Italy. Portugal's crisis and  unemployment rate don't make of it an appealing destination. It’s easier for an immigrant to go to the center of Europe where there is a more concentrated market and higher incomes. Portugal, unlike other European countries, never had a large Syrian, Afghan or Eritrean community, which may explain the fact that people awaiting relocation don’t name the country as afirst priority. Nevertheless the country is ready to receive them and has many organizations that are collaborating with refugees' camps in Greece . PAR – the Refugee Support Platform is a portuguese network of organizations from civil society whose aim is to support hosting refugees during the current humanitarian crisis. Each organization sharing this purpose is invited to integrate the platform.

PAR has been formally recognized by the Portuguese Government through a cooperation protocol and is a member of the Working Group for the Migration Agenda.

Selection of refugee families, preferably while still abroad (under the EU relocation agreement).

Proposal of a hosting and integration agreement.

Our policy is to promote a geographically dispersed hosting and integration model, in disregard of refugee centres.

Each institution will assume responsibility for the integration of one family for one year. Throughout the second year the support provided will be reduced according to the autonomy of the family.

PAR Famílias aims to provide refuge to families in Portugal through a unique and innovative integration model that we believe to be more inclusive and filling of usual gaps arising from traditional welcome practices. Thus, this model implies that for each family of refugees arriving in Portugal there will be an institution directly responsible for six dimensions we consider to be relevant [see below].

What does it take to host a family?
Each institution has to be able to assure, through its means or those of the community, the following dimensions:

Independent accommodation

Food and clothing

Support regarding access to healthcare services

Support regarding access to education

Support regarding access to labour market

Portuguese classes

Additionally, the institution must officially apply to be a host institution and be willing to sign a protocol of cooperation with PAR. Already, PAR has immediate capacity to host up to a total of 600 people, through more than 100 institutions willing to welcome at least one family.

PAR has its operations based at the JRS - the Jesuit Refugee Service, where all inquiries regarding support and hosting applications are sent to, as well as the matching between institution and families and other technical support and follow-up.

Never has been talked about so much in our country of refugees, asylum seekers, refugees, but few have tried to do some clarity about the numbers and the real meaning of the different terms, rules established at international, European and transposed to national level. It must be said that the organs of communication and politics do not help citizens to understand the true extent of migration flows.

Migrating for Hellas, except for the war times, has been mainly to other countries. Constant wars and economic problems have forced the citizens of this country to form communities all over the world.
In the 1990s the first wave of incomers came from the neighbouring countries of former Eastern Countries, mainly Albania. The legal system and the bureocracy was not ready to absorve the incomers and to an extent they did not wish to either, because the first ones in where released prisoners from Albania...
The years coming have found the country in a better economic position. All the migrants worked in jobs locals did not wish to do and their hands helped the country's agriculture.
Nowadays, with the crisis,  nobody wishes to stay in Hellas. There is no provision for locals, for citizens. No unemployment benefit for citizens. How can a destroyed country cater for migrants?
Despite all that, because of a great solidarity from the people the country has managed in this difficult situation to offer humanitarian aid and respect to the refugees. The NGO's and support from the EU have helped too. Unfortunately that is all this country has to offer: A human face, so most people wish to move on, believing there is no future here.

It's true what Nora says in the videos and although the problems of the refugees are almost similar in each countries , the ways of solution are sometimes dramatically differents and they depend on the number of refugees crossing the border of a country and the possibilities of the state. It is also true what people say that the most important is communication and  knowledge are necessary for the asylum seekers to go through complicated procedures. As Italian, it difficult for me to make any comments on Nora's description of the living conditions of newly arrived migrants in the whole of Italy and in particulary in South Italy.

Greece remains a gateway into the European Union for thousands of refugees and migrants, a fact that creates pressure at the borders, especially Greece’s borders with Turkey. The asylum system in Greece was, for years, characterized by chronic deficiencies, such as limited access to the asylum-procedure and registration of asylum applications, the lack of procedural safeguards, shortcomings in interpretation services, poor quality of asylum interviews. This situation, in addition to violating international obligations of the country, resulted in refugees being unable or not willing to seek asylum in Greece. Access of asylum seekers to legal employment, particularly to work permits, has become extremely difficult, and close to impossible.The overall negative atmosphere towards foreigners does not distinguish between refugees and economic migrants, persons present legally or illegally in Greece, those who have live in Greece for years or new arrivals. Xenophobic reactions and behaviors, as well as violent incidents with racist motives, have regularly also affected asylum seekers and refugees. Xenophobia and racism have a negative impact to the enjoyment of rights, from access to asylum to social rights, including access to health care, education and employment, and have seriously affected possibilities for integration.

Asylum-Seekers, Croatia

Asylum-seeker are individuals who have sought international protection and whose claims for refugee status have not yet been determined. In the Republic of Croatia those foreigners seeking protection from persecution in own countries are received by competent authorities (Ministry of Interior) and offered humanitarian and legal assistance by NGO's with UNHCR support. Asylum-seekers are mostly accommodated in reception centres in Kutina and Zagreb where they await the resolution of their asylum application.

1.6 Arriving in Europe - Investigation activity

Migrants arriving in my area are offered with shelters that are usually the living solutions for some months up to a few years; it always depends on the time people take to receive their permision to travel in Italy. When staying here, they receive € 2.50 a day, this sum is usually given every 2/3 months so as to create a certain amount of money. As soon they arrive, they try to buy a mobile phone to get in touch with families at home and they look for a good pair of shoes. Shoes are very important as they know that the journey to their final destination is still long. SPRARs and CASes help them with the documents to be recognized as migrants. Many of them want to go to northern Europe, because there is less economic crisis than here in Italy. Some of them, prefer to stay in Lamezia, if they find a job and they are very hard workers, highly appreciated by everybody.

Most of the migrants here are economic migrants coming from a lot of African countries but there are also from Bangladesh, Iraq, Pakistan and Afghanistan and a few from Kurdistan and Iran. I know that some of them have applied or have been recognized the status of refugee. I haven't been able to talk to them yet but I'll try to do it in a couple of weeks. Some of them have found a job and some of them do odd jobs or begs outside churches, supermarkets and so on. Those who can't stay at the shelter sleep on the roads.

# data[].attributes.body
It's true that there is no work for those migrants who obtain the refugee status in Italy, but on the other hand they don't sleep in the streets due to no shelters. There are shelters and social aids are offered, but the neighbour countries don't allow them to cross Borders without a formal identification or a worker/student Visa. So, the shelters are always full and people is moving to Italy more and more. Without common politica, EU Will be not able to give a proper life to refugees.

Several factors have made it more risky for migrants to head for Italy by boat: hundreds have drowned in repeated disasters at sea; war-torn Libya is extremely dangerous; the journey is longer - even in Lampedusa, a small island near Tunisia.
More community resources have been put into Frontex, the border agency now track the routes of migrants from Libya. But EU officials say that more effort is needed, as the sea area is vast.
Italy is angry that some European partners are so willing to share the migrant burden. His reception centers - in particular in Lampedusa and Sicily - are overcrowded, like those in Greece.

Compared with other regions, mine is quite friendly with newly arrived migrants so many of them don't have plans to move on to another country in Europe above all  if they find a job.Regarding the young refugees they go to school where they get the A2 level . They get a financial support too ,that consists into a pocket money of 2 £ a day.
They have health assistance and are guided to apply for asylum.Their shelters aren't bad and they go up and down the town with their colourful bikes in their free time when they aren't busy with the activities in which they are involved. All that don't
mean they are happy
to live far from their families and countries
but I think that the Italian government is doing its best to help
the migrants.I'm sure more than other rich countries.

Among the refugees arrived in Europe in 2016, 5% have applied for international protection (asylum), 14% subsidiary protection, humanitarian protection 22% and 58% denial.

The in Italy, the network of initial reception, is run by the Interior Ministry and is divided into 14 shelters, 5 centers for identification and expulsion, 1861 temporary structures, 430 centers of the protection system for asylum seekers and refugees.

The Italian region which has the highest number of refugees is Lombardy (13%), followed by Piemonte, Veneto, Lazio, Campania and Sicily (8%), Emilia Romagna, Tuscany and Puglia (7%).

In my city, Verona, refugees are mainly housed in temporary structures, in shelters, in the hotspot. Only one party is hosted by the protection asylum seekers and refugees

I did not think that the process for applying for refugee status was so difficult. I thought that migrants with refugee status did little question in their land, after which they were sent to a country where they were rescued. After this lesson, I think even more that we have a duty to help them and especially to give him psychological support because for them it will be really difficult to leave everything, richiare to die to achieve freedom and then be rejected.

Arriving in Italy
Migrants usually do not want to stay in Italy, but they would like to move north to reach other countries, like Germany and Sweden, because they know that here it's really difficult to catch a job due to financial crisis.
According to Dublin agreement migrants have to ask for asylum or any Visa in the first EU country they reach and they cannot chose the country they prefer (these country are usually Italy and Greece, the most hit by economic crisis). The unique exception is that they can reach the nation where their relative with asylum permit is.
Migrants can apply for international protection.request and a special committe will judge the situation. Migrants have the right to be assisted by a lawyer (paid by the state if you can't afford it).
If migrants have entered illegally the country they have to recognized by police forces.
The committee (formed by two from ministry of Internal Affairs, one from local autorities, one from UNHCR) decided during the audition (the day is communicated to the migrant by police forces). After sending the asylum request, the migrant has to live in one of the statal shelter. They have to stay there and ask permission to leave the centre if they want to.
Migrants have the right to medical care, legal assistance, family or UNHCR's members visits.
If the committee decided that the migrant is a refugee you obtain a visa that lasts 5 years and can be renewed. The migrant has also the right to work, to social and health care, to the journey document, to move freely in EU territory, to public education, to gain IT citizenship after living here for five years. The migrant has also the right to appeal against a negative judgement.

Sweden took about 28 939 refugees last year and in 2015 got here 162 877 refugees. This produced panic at the national and local level because the country was not prepared for so many people but the Swedish government try to find solutions for this situation. A significant part of these refugees is children who arrived alone. The first priority for those children is to start their school as soon as possible because the rector, teachers, psychologists and other school personal can help these children.

ALL-OUT war between migrants and poor families could erupt as tension builds in "abandoned" parts of Rome, the city's mayor has warned.

Virginia Raggi demanded immediate action to tackle the desperate crisis in Italy's capital city, with the country having seen the biggest surge in migrants in Europe this year.

Her comments came after a Moroccan family faced a barrage of abuse from neighbours who shouted "we don't want these n*****s" as they attempted to move into their new council home.

Ms Raggi told an immigration summit of European city leaders that mayors must be the first to welcome refugees with "warmth, shelter and accommodation", reports the Express.

"Our cities seem to be closed off with their self-interest and the mayors are the ones who should give the first reception," she said.

"We must guarantee human warmth, shelter, accommodation.

"The attitude that we have seen, unfortunately, offends our dignity as mayors and people.

"For this we must take action, even more in the suburbs, which are the most abandoned parts of the city, where there is a risk of a war between the poor."

Italy has seen the largest increase in migrant arrivals to Europe this year after the European Union (EU) made a deal with Turkey directing migrants to Italy instead of Greece.

She said the situation is so fragile in Rome's suburbs between impoverished locals and migrants that violent clashes between the two groups are imminent.

"In Rome, we are trying to provide stability with temporary shelters and tents," she said.

"We want everyone to have a roof over their heads.

"Rome is working hard to respect the dignity of people.

"We are historically open to reception and we want to continue."

Ms Raggi said rich countries in the West were ultimately responsible for the migrant crisis and their actions had made poor countries "the subject of conquest".

"The behaviour of the richest countries, the prevalence of individual interests, the exploitation of natural resources, and the globalisation - all of this has made many poor countries the subject of conquest," she said.

Yesterday Italy held the EU to ransom after refusing to back budget changes - insisting not enough cash is being set aside to tackle the migrant crisis in the Mediterranean.

But diplomats believe it is highly unlikely Italy's demands for funding will be met, with other countries frustrated by delays to signing off the 2017 budget.

I think Migration is a very difficult situation to manage. The integration, in our country is a big problem because of the political system.

# data[].attributes.body
Unfortunately, the situation in Italy is not that good even for Italians. Once a migrant arrives in Europe through the Italian coast, perhaps find himself struck because he can't work legally and all that follows. But in these days, Italy has to cope with such a huge number of migrants that even if it was well organised like German, refugees and migrants met a lot of problems. There are not enough shelters for this huge number of people. I think that an Institution like the European Union can't have different regional situations and laws anymore.

It seems that for the majority of the migrants the journey will end in Greece, because many European countries don't want to accept them.This creat many problems but also many responsibilities for the greek authorities to ensure good living conditions and an educational frame.

# data[].attributes.body
As it is stated by my colleagues in Greece, refugees don't want to stay in our country because of the really bad living conditions and the lack of work and education. Some of them already have relatives in other European countries and they want to go and stay with them. In Switzerland, migrants have been mostly entering the country by the southern region of Ticino, near Italy's Como. The influx has forced Swiss authorities to turn many away, with Amnesty International slamming them for refusing entry to migrant children. Another issue is that up to 40% of refugees who asked for asylum in Switzerland disappeared from Swiss reception centers shortly afterwards (mainly heading for Germany)

I visited some of the pupils in the buildings that they were staying in. Very close quarters, loud, no privacy and not welcoming. But they are making the best of the situation.

One of the buildings was a school. The classrooms were split in half. One half for each family. Some had 3 bunk-beds and 3 small wardrobes, a small table with 4 chairs. The families had to take turns eating. They were very cramped. The kitchen was shared by 20 people. There were 2 small refrigerators, one stove , one sink and 4 cabinets. The old gym was turned into sleeping quarters for single men. The school showers in the gym were men's and women's.  The same with the rest rooms. There was no privacy whatsoever.

I couldn't imaging living in such a small space with my husband and 4 children. We would fight a lot due to "cabin fever". Even if it is a "gift" it is very stressful to live under such conditions. It has been a 18 months now.

I live in a small town near the Etna volcano. I must say that, at least  my area doesn't live the drama of the arrival of new migrants or refugees. Some migrants reach relatives and are hosted in their homes but often others are dropped and this certainly doesn't improve the social life of anyone. But I think that is essential better information to arrive at a sufficient integration. Unfortunately in Italy life has become too hard for many persons and it is not easy to integrate and above all keep in decent conditions refugees, migrants and also italian people. The problem doesn't exist if you're a politician. Excuse me.

Migrants arriving in Almería are supported by family or friends who have previously arrived. They also contact local authorities which provide basic help to settle down and associations which provide information, advice and emotional support to help them adapt to their new life. They have had many difficulties to find or keep a job during the past economic crisis and some have gone back to their countries. Now the situation is slowly improving, and the communities are stable. More resources would be needed for a better integration

# data[].attributes.body
There is still a lot of work ahead to improve the situation for newly arriving migrants. Each person has a story to tell and reasons why they left their home countries. I strongly believe that integration can only work if people are allowed to work and if they learn the new language a.s.a.p. to be able to communicate with Austrian people and to increase their chances to get a good job. At school things work quite well at the moment even though more teachers would be needed.

Like it is said before, migrants do not want to stay in Greece but cause of the situation of the borders they cannot do anything and go anywhere.

I have no view of shelters but they cannot be good, having so many people in all weather conditions, these are not living conditions.
For me, another issue are unaccompanied children that makes me sad and worry me more.

I think this is a difficult situation to manage , especially as far I can see here in Italy. Sometimes the money given by the European council has been stolen by the associations encharged to get care of the refugees, who instead, were living in bad conditions. How can it be possible?

The situation of migrants in Rome is not easy. According to Censis in 2015, 12.7% of the inhabitants of Rome is foreign.

The integration is increasingly difficult and increasing episodes of intolerance.

For example in 2016 Residents of a neighborhood have not wanted to accept a Moroccan family.

Unfortunately in Italy There is still afraid of the Different, there isn’t empathy.

In my area there aren't first shelters, since the refugees should cross all Italy to come here. In the province of Brescia last year there were around 2600 asylum seekers, but only about 7% got it, and the 61% of the requests had a negative answer. Refugees (usually from Africa; from Asia we have especially Pakistany immigrants, who flight in, usually have degrees, work and intend to stay) live usually in hotels and apartments (usually they try to distribute people around the province, in order to avoid fears and negative reactions from the "natives") and, apart from food and basic needs items, they received, for instance in the center of Breno, a small but rich village, actions to help them to integrate, linguistically, culturally, but also as workers. In this center they take care even of refugees with special needs, like mental diseases. In other small centers refugees help the council with small jobs, intended to keep the town cleaner and to show their willingness to the inhabitants... Also the church help them, and about 150 refugees are hosted by local communities. In my village there are twenti refugees (young men) in small apartments, originally designed for rich elderly (but were weren't old people rich enough or interested in buying them...)
There aren't people sleeping on the street. I know, on the other hand, that in some regions of the Southern Italy the situation can get hard, because there aren't enough shelters to host all the people coming from the sea (and the unemployement rate is far worse...). The majority of the people want to leave Italy for other European countries, but they often stay here, even when they have relatives in Germany or France.

It is an important step to understand better the situation but the situation also hugely varies between European countries and as Nora outlines here, also within some countries.

What is the legal framework and what practical aspects need to be taken into account by people entering Europe? Nora outlines some general aspects and provides a more detailed overview of the situation in Germany.

İn my town, the 30 Afgan families stayed in a two-storey house at the same time.and later on volunteering organisations have them a hand.they provided them with jobs, seperate house, etc.

The difficlies, which the refugees confront are significant, not only during their journey but also during their stay in The EU.
Despite the fact that in Greece the legislation with regard to the asylum seekers is excellent, it is not applied lack of resources...
Of course there are people who are very friendly to the refugees in Greece, but there are protests against them (especially from people who share far right ideas). A lot of people protest in Greece against the refugees, using the following argument "Why EU gives money for the welfare of the refugees, while there is no money for the local people, who suffer on account of the economical crisis?"

How many different ways to rule the"arriving migrants in so many differents countries of Europe... qwe are so rich in politics and so poor in humanity.. how many shelters? Are we (European ) able manage with that?

WE SAW TO THE VIDEOS ABOVE THE DESCRIPTION OF THE DIFFICULTIES THE MIGRANTS HAVE TO DEAL WITH ARRIVING IN A EUROPEAN COUNTRY. IN MY COUNTRY BECAUSE OF THE ECONOMICAL CRISIS I THINK THAT NOONE WANTS TO STAY BUT UNFORTUNATELLY THEY CAN GO NOWHERE. ALL THE BORDERS ARE CLOSED AND THE MIGRANTS ARE STUCK HERE AND THEY CAN DO NOTHING ABOUT THAT AND WE CAN DO NOTHING ABOUT THEM EXCEPT A LITTLE HELP WE CAN PROVIDE AS HUMMANS BECAUSE WE SUFFER TOO. ALTHOUGH A LOT OF MONEY ARE PAID FOR THE REFUGEES FROM EUROPEAN COUNCIL, MANY NON GOVERMENT ORGANIZATIONS FROM AROUND THE WORLD TAKES THE MONEY AND DO NOTHING. THAT'S AWFUL....

In these video there are a  description of the situation that newly arrived migrants have to deal when they manage to arrive in Europe.

# data[].attributes.body
It's true what Nora says in the videos and although the problems of the refugees are almost similar in each countries , the ways of solution are sometimes dramatically differents and they depend on the number of refugees crossing the border of a country and the possibilities of the state. It is also true what people say that the most important is communication and  knowledge are necessary for the asylum seekers to go through complicated procedures. As Italian, it difficult for me to make any comments on Nora's description of the living conditions of newly arrived migrants in the whole of Italy and in particulary in South Italy.

After long journeys with many difficulties, these people have to face another hard reality. Living in different types of shelters, trying to find out what they can do in the future. Many of them dont even know their rights and their responsibilities, how the asylum and welfare system works. Nora gave us a very detailed description of the situation that they have to deal when they manage to arrive in Europe.

# data[].attributes.body
Nora highlights the importance to let refugees enter Europe legally that is to apply for a study visa or a permit working visa, but it's quite often impossible because to apply for this they have to go to the embassy of the country they want to reach and for exemple in Siria there aren't all embassies. She says that there's the "settlement program" to take care of refugees but it is planned in countries near the countries in war and it is decided that all those people come back to their native countries legally. It's a sort of a temporary settlement that doesn't solve refugees' problems. When they arrive illegally they try to join the communities of people having their same nationality in order to know what doing, their rights and also their duties. In Italy there are temporary Refugee Camps for migrants and there are also some associations which provide for them (to apply for residence permit and documents, to go to school to learn Italian and to find a job). These associations also provide them with a little money to live.

“It is a joint European responsibility to make sure that each and every

child is provided with opportunities for quality education. To succeed, it

is very important that we share and learn from each other...

A school that is robust and flexible enough to give a fair chance for

every child is the best possible precondition for newly arrived children to

develop their knowledge and skills

.”

I This is really a difficult situation to manage ,really found it very interesting how Nora delves into the general aspects of the migrants and refugees here in Europe, all information about legal and illegal procedures to arrive in Europe ring true to me, those who escape poverty or war or just want to get a decent life following an education path in schools of any kind can find shelter in Europe.

As a Sicilian, it is really so difficult for me to make any comments on Nora's description of the living conditions of newly arrived migrants in the whole of Italy and in Sicily in detail. We've often heard about the overcrowded camps in Pozzallo or Mineo. It is a shame how people live there. They are supposed to stay in the camps 72 hours, but most of them are stuck there for months. And among them there are so many minors.

The Italian government has largely kept reporters from entering the shelters and interviewing refugees.

This is all true what Nora says in the videos and although the problems of the refugees are almost similar in each countries , the ways of solution are sometimes dramatically different depending on the number of refugees crossing the border of a given country and the possibilities of the state. It is also true what people say that the most important is communication and dissemination of  knowledge necessary for the asylum seekers to go through complicated procedures.
Poland is the country whose current government is extremely reluctant to admit asylum to any seekers of Muslim origin. I am personally ashamed of this kind of approach and we as teachers advocate all possible projects to change that situation.

I really found it very interesting how Nora delves into the general aspects of the migrants and refugees here in Europe, all information about legal and illegal procedures to arrive in Europe ring true to me, those who escape poverty or war or just want to get a decent life following an education path in schools of any kind can find shelter in Europe, Germany and Italy host many of them giving them several opportunities, as for Italy, my country, migrants and refugees are generally welcome, they get shelters, food and a pocket money for their basic needs, no one sleeps in the streets, the are accomodated in hotels or shelters provided by humanitarian organisations. The real problem is with work, there is little work for local people so one can imagine how hard a task is to find a decent job for migrants. Government must try to focus on the matter and find solutions

As Nora says in her last video, a big problem is communication: migrants get to know what they can do and what they can’t do just experienced it but they aren’t informed sufficiently before. So, often they feel lost! I want to share an important initiative to fill this gap and helps migrants: a series of videoguide to help them in their asylum apply procedure. These videos are simple, available in several languages and I think it could be a good didactical resource in our classroom http://asyleasy.com/

Speaking a little about the situation in Portugal:
Portugal has received about 700 refugees in the last year, spread across 66 counties in the country.
"The pace of arrivals has been more regular and intense in recent months, compared to the start of the relocation program. It is expected that a further 92 people will arrive, referred by Caritas in Greece," said Deputy Minister Eduardo Goat.
One of the most mediated projects was that of Penela, who took four families (three Syrians and one Sudanese) into the interior of the country. Yesterday, with eight days to go, they returned home to some of them and found a different picture of what the country saw in November 2015. Many prefer not to give a face when they point out what did not go well, although they always emphasize gratitude To Portugal, a country that they only knew by name, and which they considered "similar to Germany" because it was the same Europe. They came from Egypt, where they were two or three years old. This is the case of Sousan and Sameer, 33 and 38, the food engineer, who advises the rectory of the University of Homs, a city destroyed by the war in Syria. They arrived with their three children, now 1, 3.5 and 6 years old, and they say they like the village and the country.
He is one of those who have already achieved equivalence of the degree, is doing master's degree at the University of Coimbra. In Syria he worked in a sugar refinery, but because of his experience in the food business, he is now trying his luck at a Rabaçal company known as cheese. The house provided by the house has only the essentials. "But we were told now that we had to return everything: furniture, appliances and bedding, as well as the mobile phones we received, and from now on we would have to pay rent," says the family, Adjunct ensure housing for those who need it.
