26/02/2016 (Agence Europe) - European march for migrants. A big European march in support of refugees is being organised by citizens' groups in over a hundred towns this Saturday 27 February. With the slogan #SAFEPASSAGE, the demonstration will be aimed at calling on European leaders to open up safe passageways for people seeking protection in Europe. According to the High Commissioner for Refugees, children currently count for over a third of those attempting the dangerous crossing to reach Europe. What is more, the organisers of the march say that the countries along the Balkans route are progressively closing their borders to anyone in search of protection - which leaves thousands of people blocked in Greece, without access to the slightest of reception conditions, in a country that has itself been experiencing a humanitarian crisis for several years.
