Summary
Since the war in Ukraine started within one year Poland welcomed 1.5 million Ukrainian refugees and provided them with the necessary assistance, including work and residence permits. However, a few kilometers north, on the border with Belarus, refugees mainly from the Middle East and Africa have been facing harsh anti-immigration policies.
The project started in August 2022 and today we publish the webpage of the project: https://hannajarzabek.com/another-wall
The production of this investigation is supported by a grant from the IJ4EU fund.
