I wrote an opinion piece in danish newspaper Berlingske and participated in Radio24Syv Morgen in respons to the political pressure for sanctions towards the unaccompanied asylum seekers at the asylum centres. In stead of having asylum centres for children I think you should focus on little cottages with fewer children and more staff for each child leaving more room for the pedagogical work.

LISTEN TO THE INTERVIEW

Recent proposals for political sanctions and curfews unveils ignorance and unwillingness to fundamentally understand who the young unaccompanied asylum seekers are and the “baggage” and cultural language they carry with them.
