474. Refugee camp, Thessalonik, Greece

A refugee camp located in a former Softex toilet roll factory near Thessalonik in Greece is known for housing children in risk of abuse. Corruption has undermined the safety so local criminals can target the innocent children placing them in risk of sexual abuse.

This camp was created because the European Union failed as a union. It is every country for itself. Every country has put up fences and border control. The children are stuck in camps with poor supervision and placed in risk of abuse due to lack of control with employees and visitors. The government of Greece are without means to react as the irresponsible population has neglected to pay taxes and work hard for many years leaving the authorities without money to hire proper staff.

It cannot be fun to be there as a child.
