On the Border
In a small town on the edge of the Sahara, the European Union is testing new border and surveillance concepts to stop large migratory movements 1000 km from the Mediterranean. An innovative development project for Africa or a geopolitical measure to prevent a new refugee crisis in Europe?
The desert city of Agadez has been a hub for trade routes, migration and Tuareg culture for centuries. However, as part of an EU commitment, the Nigerian government passes a law that criminalizes migration overnight. Thousands of people lose their livelihoods as a result. The citizens' discontent leads to uprisings and ends in a military coup. When Russia is then appointed as the new security partner, the dream of autonomous self-determination comes to an abrupt end. Three residents of the city tell how their homeland became a pawn in the game of geopolitical interests.
