Since January 2011, over 25,000 people from Northern Africa have reached the island of Lampedusa (Italy) in small boats, facing a very dangerous journey to escape the crisis that has affected many African countries and the civil war in Libya in search of better living conditions. Often the Journey of Hope ends in tragedy.
