Smuggling and trafficking facilitate new journeys towards Europe but often at high costs and great risk to refugees, migrants and trafficked persons alike. This panel examines the routes, journeys and trajectories of modern migration and the human cost of transition.

Daniela Debono (Marie Curie COFAS Fellow, Malmö University and the EUI) -- A cumulative trumping of human rights: The EU’s ‘first reception’ system for irregularly-arriving maritime migrants

Sine Plambech (DIIS) -- Between “Victims” and “Criminals”: Rescue, Deportation, and Everyday Violence Among Nigerian Migrants
