What we did | August23<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

Let’s start this September with the fresh flavor of the good things that happened last month!<\/p>\n

Our volunteer Miriam Cortinovis<\/span> left for a month of service at the la Margelle shelter in Calais, France,<\/span><\/b> where the Scalabrinian fathers operate. Calais is an important city because it is a place of departure and transit for thousands of people trying to reach the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n

Being in the places where migrants pass through aims to experience closeness and service in order to better understand the world around you and be able to be part of change.<\/p>\n

The first week of August, Davide, ASCS worker participated in the service camp at the Spain-Morocco border in Tetuan on the outskirts of Ceuta.<\/b> The days alternated between training sessions on topics of interest related to migration and caring, educational and recreational activities with people in transit.<\/p>\n

We remain on the borders, in Chiasso, Switzerland<\/b>, where we participated in a meeting and exchange with local people and some asylum seekers housed in the federal center next to the train station. It was a good time with food, music, dancing, but most importantly, dialogue and discussion. The day ended with a talk by Soumaila Diawara, is a Malian political activist refugee in Italy and author of poetry.<\/p>\n
