EU money should not go in the hands of people who undermine fundamental rights Iratxe García Pérez /❤️ very well said! #SOTEU2023

FEATURED: @EURACTIV “The Pact on Asylum and #MigrationEU that is currently negotiated cannot be built on deterrence: the political priority should be to offer children protection, not to ‘protect’ external borders from them.” Federica Toscano Save the Children Global Media euractiv.com/section/migrat…

I think the EU has absolutely nothing - zero - to say on children’s rights and human rights from here on in. Your president Ursula von der Leyen and Roberta Metsola have shown this. Human rights are for everyone or no one. #Gaza blood on #EU hands. #CeasefireNOW

A great initiative from Save the Children Europe 👏 ✅Children should play with friends ❌ Not with border police

We did this today 👇

How old should be the children who can be locked up at EU borders? That's the level reached by the negotiations on the Pact. This doesn't work, not for Europe and certaintly not for children @eu2023es LIBE Committee Press

‼️ European leaders' choices will determine the fate of migrant children as they head into #MigrationEU Pact negotiations on #InternationalMigrantsDay. Save the Children warns that #MigrationPact will further entrench child rights abuses in Europe. Why? Follow the thread⬇️🧵

The many declarations of success hear from politicians today pretend to ignore that this Pact doesn't provide any effective and workable solution to the current challenges that we face in managing migration in Europe. It won't take long to see it.

🆕 In the last two years, over 2 million children fled their countries of origin to Europe. More than 50% of them face danger on their way, according to a new Save the Children report. Children describe being beaten by border officials and police, and sleeping in forests ⬇️

SPOKESPERSON ALERT: The final vote on Pact on Migration & Asylum on 10 April is the EU's last chance to protect children seeking safety in Europe. “The decision will impact children fleeing conflict, hunger & death for decades. It is imperative the EU gets it right”-Federica Toscano

This is Mamadou Kouassi, the scriptwriter for 'Io Capitano' who inspired the story and lived through the journey himself, asking on behalf of the whole film crew that MEPs reject this #MigrationPact. ❤️

New #EUMigrationPact will drastically undermine children’s rights in Europe. “It’s clear that European Parliament & EU Member States have prioritised restricting access to Europe over the protection of children,” says Willy Save the Children Europe Director savethechildren.net/news/statement…

A historic step, but for all the wrong reasons. The new #EUMigrationPact prioritises border protection over people, neglecting families and children escaping violence, conflict, hunger and death while seeking protection in Europe. 1/2

‼️ BREAKING Dopo 7 anni di indagini, la nave civile #Iuventa sequestrata e lasciata marcire, 24 vite in ostaggio, a #Trapani la maxi montatura giudiziaria contro il soccorso civile in mare finisce nell'ennesima bolla di sapone: TUTTƏ PROSCIOLTƏ perché "il fatto non sussiste."

🚨 One week to go until the #EUElections2024! 🚨 Elections are vital to protect children & issues that matter most to them: education, climate, poverty, health, migration, and more. 🌍🗳️ 🗳️ Don’t take democracy for granted. #UseYourVote to uphold children's rights!

SPOKESPERSON ALERT: Following reports of 24+ migrant children missing in 2 Med shipwrecks, Federica Toscano said:"This tragedy should be a wakeup call for EU governments. How many more lives will be lost before leaders invest in coordinated SAR & safer routes for children & families?"

GAZA: “We know how to prevent malnutrition, we know how to treat malnutrition, but we aren’t being given the opportunity to do it." - Rachel Cummings Save the Children International #ipc #CeasefireNOW savethechildren.net/news/devastati…

“Today's proposal of the EU law on returns could mask child rights violations as efficiency. Migration management must never come at the expense of children’s rights,” Federica Toscano, Senior Advocacy Advisor at Save the Children Europe
