Migration Special

Available for over a year

The current crisis about refugees and asylum seekers hasn't erupted from nowhere: From Our Own Correspondent has been following migrant routes into Europe for years. Kate Adie introduces a selection of the programme's dispatches from correspondents who have met the migrants and heard their stories. Alan Johnson, at the quayside of a Sicilian port, and Nick Thorpe in Hungary examine the harsh economics of the migrants'' journeys; Diana Darke rejoins a Syrian friend who made it to Germany and Lina Sinjab describes some of the terrors driving Syrians from their homes; and Rob Cameron finds anti-migrant rhetoric on the rise in the Czech Republic.
