Human rights defender's profile: Azadi

"Migration is not a crime. Defending the rights of migrant people should not be criminalised," said Azadi (pseudonym) in her interview with ISHR. Today, more than 68 million people around the world are refugees or internally displaced as a result of conflict or persecution. They seek a safer life and better future. "Migrant rights defenders want to show people on the move that another Europe exists: it's the Europe of the civil society that tries to welcome them. The Europe of solidarity", Azadi concluded.
