Campaigns
Short introduction to our Campaigns
The campaign "UNFAIR - The UN Refusal Agency" criticises the work of the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR), particularly in Libya. Instead of fulfilling its mandate to protect refugees, asylum seekers, and people on the move, the UNHCR is protecting European borders and has become an instrument of European externalisation policies.
The Municipality of Mazara del Vallo has an ancient history of relationships and collaborations with the populations overlooking the common Mediterranean sea, which over the centuries have had relationships with the Mazara communities. The choice to hold the conference in this city, where the church bells echo and the muezzin's song at prayer time, was dictated precisely by the characteristics of Mazara. Its historic center has neighborhoods with names like Kasbah, Giudecca, which testify to its multi-cultural and multi-religious roots.
