Migrations in the Mediterranean
Mediterranean migrations refer to the movement of people crossing the Mediterranean Sea to reach Europe or other regions, often driven by conflict, economic hardship, or environmental issues in their home countries. These migrations have increased significantly in recent years, with many migrants and refugees risking dangerous sea journeys to escape violence, poverty, or persecution. Governments and organizations face challenges in managing these flows, balancing humanitarian needs with border security. The phenomenon highlights broader issues of global inequality, displacement, and climate change, and remains a complex human-rights and geopolitical concern.
