CONCLUSION This report provides strong evidence of Greece’s failure to provide dignified accommodation to people seeking international protection. We are extremely concerned at the lack of dignity and adequate living standards afforded to people who come to Greece seeking international protection. We call on the Greek State to accommodate asylum seekers in apartments and houses in urban settings where they can access services, social networks and wider society. Where camp accommodation is necessary, the state should ensure it is used for short-term stays only and residents have full and unrestricted access to basic rights including healthcare, information and legal support. We further call for provision of regular and free transportation from camps to urban centres to facilitate residents’ access to administrative and legal services as well as healthcare.
