What Can I Learn About Migration From This Image? 2. What Is One Question About Migration That This Image Raises For Me? Table 5
2. What is one question about migration that this image raises for me?
Table 5:
1. From this image, I can learn that many people try and migrate from North-East
Africa (Libya in particular) to Europe (Italy) in 2014-15, even though it is a
dangerous trip. We can infer that it is a dangerous trip when looking at the number
of migrants dead and missing in each incident. Most deaths happened either near
the coast of Libya or in between Libya and Italy (the middle of the Medditerranean
Sea).
2. How many migrants have died or gone missing without anyone knowing?
Table 1:
1. From this graph, I can learn that the risk is large to cross the meditarranean, but a
lot of people do make it. We can also see that in 2011 and 2015, there was a large
incident where a lot of migrants died or went missing. In 2014, the opposite
happened, where a lot of migrants arrived, while less migrants went dead and
missing.
2. Do people who attempt to cross the mediterranean know these statistics?
Table 2:
1. From this image, I can learn that migrants from Africa use migrant routes that try
and go around the Sahara desert. Also, not a lot of migrants use the Western Sea
Route, which goes from Morocco to Spain. In 2014, the Central Sea Route spiked,
as many people used it.
2. Why is the West Sea Route not used as often?
Table 3:
1. A lot of people went to Germany and France, but a lot got rejected as well.
Germany, Sweden and Italy accepted the most people. Sweden took in the most
people per 1,000 population. Bulgaria accepted the most (100%) out of the people
that applied.
2. How do they decide who gets accepted and rejected?
Table 4:
1. From this graph, I can learn that most migrants come from Syria, which is logical
because there is an ongoing conflict there. Most other migrants come from African
countries where there are also conflicts or extreme poverty.
2. What happens to these people?
