African transit migration through Libya to Europe: the Human cost
Abstract
This document presents a report on African transit migration through Libya to Europe: the human cost. This report seeks to shed light on the experiences of refugees, asylum-seekers and migrants temporarily residing in and passing to the EU through Libya. The report examines the experiences of refugees, asylum-seekers and migrants in Libya. It also analyses the notion of protection for refugees and asylum-seekers in Libya both from a legal perspective as understood by refugees and asylum seekers themselves. It further tracks the journeys of refugees, asylum-seekers and migrants, originating from Egypt, Sudan and the Horn of Africa, from their countries of origin to the ultimate destination of the EU. Finally, it outlines and analyses the cooperation between the EU and Libya on migration issues.
