Overview

More and more women are deciding to leave their countries of origin, fleeing violence and human rights violations, and embarking on the Canary Islands route, one of the deadliest in the world. During their migration process, they are exposed to greater violence simply because they are women. This double discrimination does not end when they reach European soil, where they also face prejudice and other types of structural violence that exacerbate their vulnerability. Mar de fóra seeks to portray this reality through the voices of the protagonists and people involved in their reception process in Canarian society.
