sobreviven

A young man from Syria holds his young daughter in the port of Mytilene while waiting to board a UNHCR bus that will transport them to the Moria Reception / Registration center. ; More than 900.000 refugees and migrants arrived in Greece since January 2015.
Despite rough seas and freezing water temperatures they continue crossing the Aegean sea from Turkey to the Greek islands in overcrowded inflatable boats, many arriving to the Greek shores in a state of shock and suffering from hypothermia.
Vulnerable groups like women, children and the elderly are amongst the ones who are often in danger during the perilous boat ride that can take hours.
In an effort to save lives and assist those in need the Hellenic Coast Guard in cooperation with Frontex have increased their search and rescue operations in the Aegean, often rescuing hundreds of refugees and migrants on a daily basis.
The vast majority of those attempting the treacherous journey are fleeing war, persecution and violence in their country of origin and are in need of international protection.
