Listen "The Comoros: a Neocolonial Split"
Episode Synopsis
Known as Africa's 'secret paradise,' the Comoros Islands are located in the Indian Ocean. Whilst it is is an independent state, the nation faces challenge concerning Mahoré, the fourth island - as it remains under the administration of France, effectively creating an EU border. The living conditions for residents of Ngazidja, Mwali, and Nzwani, the other three islands, continue to be challenging which has compelled many Comorans to reach Mahoré. Over the past two decades, at least 10,000 individuals have tragically lost their lives making this perilous journey to Mahoré. We discuss how this situation came to be.
