Janna Sauerteig

She discusses the alarming death toll since 2014 and how organizations like hers fill the gap left by Italy’s Mare Nostrum withdrawal. Janna sheds light on the violent actions of the Libyan Coast Guard and the EU's complicity in human rights violations. She also advocates for a European search-and-rescue program and ways for listeners to assist in these life-saving efforts.
