Nadias Story – Accounts from a deportation center in Denmark

Kærshovedgård deportation camp is situated in an isolated part of Denmark, far away from the consciousness of the general Danish public. It is a closed camp with fences and no bus stop.

The immigrants and refugees here are stuck with no check out date, living in a vacuum with constant uncertainty about what tomorrow will bring. As a rejected asylum seeker in Denmark you are not allowed to work, study or access the country’s universal health care system. Because of this many refugees live untreated and unmedicated while in absolute poverty.

Many have lived like this for years and have no support from the world outside.People here have many stories to tell and this initiative aims to give them a voice.

The following story is one of several made in collaboration with the refugees of Kærshovedgård.
