Humanitarian situation and needs
Key messages
-
The Sahrawi refugees are the result of an unresolved political conflict with humanitarian consequences, which have to be addressed in line with the humanitarian principles of neutrality and impartiality.
-
The Sahrawi refugee situation is defined as a forgotten crisis by the European Commission, meaning that it receives little funding from the international community.
-
Refugees living in five camps have little access to outside resources and international aid continues to be necessary to their survival.
