Crossing Lines. Realities of Migrant Children at EU External Borders is the new Report by Save the Children that analyses the situation of the youngest children at the external borders of the European Union, focusing in particular on Greece, Italy, Finland, Spain and Poland. The publication shows how violations at the borders of the European Union undermine the protection of minors.

Some priorities for migrant minors are emphasised in the document, including the need to respect in the new EU Pact the principles on migration and asylum of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights and the European Convention on Human Rights.

The English version of the Report is available on the Save the Children website.
