Children Come First, Intervento in Frontiera: Dossier V

The general objective of the project “Children Come First: Intervention at the border” is to strengthen the system of protection and reception of migrant children arriving in Italy, whether they are separated or accompanied by their parents.

The project aims to strengthen both intervention activities to support and assist minors from when they first enter Italy, at all the main landing sites and at the mainland border crossings. It also aims to assist those involved in managing mixed migration flows through information-sharing, training activities, and capacity building.

This report on the last quarter of 2017 confirms the trend observed in the previous months of an intensified contraction of the migration flows.
