| Kivonat: | Mentioning France, recalls many things, from the charming streets of Paris to the stunning views of the Alps to the most special varieties of wine and cheese. However, behind the scenes, many more values, specialities, as well as challenges and issues exist within the borders of this unique country. The regions of northern France have always been a popular holiday destination, given its climatic and geographical conditions, with only 40 kilometres from the British coasts. Nevertheless, the potential and practicality of the area has become a focus not only for holidaymakers but also for refugees, asylum seekers and migrants as well, especially in the last few years. With the arrival of unexpected influxes of people, the towns of Calais and Dunkirk began to look more and more like a transit zone than a possible destination for those seeking rest. Not to mention what the recent waves of refugee and migration crises have generated, such as women and children left alone in the jungle camps and the growing smuggling networks between France and the UK. The question rightly arises as to, how can a popular holiday resort in France, become one of Europe's most devastated refugee camps? |
