Egyptian unaccompanied minors account for 25% of illegal immigrants in Italy. The 2010 statistics from the Committee for Foreign Children Affairs in Italy generated the “Baladna Awla Beweladna” (Our Children for our Country) project, which held a press conference on Wednesday after operating for almost three years.
The project is a product of collaboration between the Youth Association for Population and Development (YAPD) and the NGO, Save the Children. The project aims to decrease the number of unaccompanied Egyptian minors exploited through the illegal immigration to Europe and raise awareness on the matter.
