Translated title:
Immigration in Greece following the closure of the Balkan route in March 2018. A critical review of the response in Health and Protection needs of refugees and migrants
Summary:
The study thesis in consideration attempts a critical analysis on the effectiveness of the humanitarian response in Greece in the period following the closure of the Western Balkan route and the EU-Turkey Agreement in March 2016 and up to November 2017 -a period when Greece had been forced to re-gear its migration approach- targeting protection and health for migrants. It reveals that, although the number of beneficiaries was relatively small and Greece, with the assistance of the EU and other stakeholders, had invested a lot of resources on the relative response, there had been serious drawbacks and failures in terms of coherence of assistance and capacity of services, while migrants had been exposed to health and life-threatening risks and violations of their human and legal rights. Insufficiency of response, further to deficiencies inherent in the Greek system, reflects the impact of internalization and EU-migration governance on national planning and migration policy.
