The details of the journey that brought them from home to Catalonia are not topics that unaccompanied migrant children like to discuss. It is difficult for them to recall the beatings, the robberies, the violence inflicted upon them along the way, and in many cases, this silence extends to the human rights violations they suffer upon arrival in Europe. "Don't ask me about the boat," many of these young people plead, often admitting they had no idea of all the difficulties they would encounter along the way. Data and reports on these situations are scarce, but the Ficat Foundation and Pompeu Fabra University, together with the Casal dels Infants (Children's Home), offer a snapshot of how they have been treated on their journey.

Ten migrant minors seeking asylum who until now had been in the Canary Islands are now on the Peninsula. This Monday, the Spanish government began the transfer of these young people, thus complying with the Supreme Court order requiring it to take responsibility for a thousand minors who, upon arriving in the Canary Islands, requested international protection and have been accredited. Sources from the Ministry of Inclusion, Social Security and Migration explain that, following this first transfer, two weekly transfers of small groups of minors are expected, which will be carried out in coordination with the Canary Islands government. In total, approximately 800 unaccompanied minors will be transferred, sources from the ministry told ARA. The remaining young people, up to a thousand, are staying in the Canary Islands because they have preferred to do so for reasons of establishing a stronghold.
