Episode Synopsis "Unaccompanied minors: Dis-continuum of protection | w/Elina Sarantos"

What does life hold for the children who have been abandoned to the streets, completely excluded from any benefits, support, or representation of any kind? And, also, is independent child migration necessarily an exploitative or damaging experience for children? For this session, together with us is a humanitarian worker with deep knowledge on the minors’ experiences in Greece, co-author of a significant report on the issue of exclusion and exploitation of unaccompanied minors. Elina Sarantos is an anthropologist with an MA in Human Rights, currently working for HIAS Greece in Lesvos. She has worked in civil society for over ten years, mainly in the humanitarian and protection sectors. She has developed proposals and strategic papers for highly demanding funders and policymakers on a wide variety of protection issues (asylum, victims of torture, minors in administrative detention, homelessness, etc.). at wearesolomon.com
