AFF is supporting Vision Nuevo Siglo, a non-profit organization providing relief aid and cultural engagement to at-risk migrants and refugees populations in Northern Africa and Southern Spain.
THE CRISIS
Migrants are coming to Morocco from Sub-Saharan Africa countries: Ivory Coast, Cameroon, Senegal, Nigeria, the Central African Republic. Refugees are leaving their countries due to war, economic impoverishment, and political oppression in hopes of establishing new, safe, and sustainable lives in Europe.
They come to Morocco with the intention and hope of making it to Europe, they find that they have to remain in Morocco or return to their home country, as entering Europe has become increasingly difficult. Increased patrols off the coast with the interdiction of boats and the high security walls built around the Spanish enclaves force migrants to remain in Morocco.
THE WORK
Vision Nuevo Siglo is providing humanitarian relief to these refugees to meet their basic human needs and also working for the prevention of human trafficking.
