Queuing
Queuing 8 to 12 hours a day for:
1.5 Litres of Water
Refugees get a 1.5 Litre bottle of drinking water a day. This needs to be used for drinking and additonal cooking.
2 Meals
These meals are often of bad quality and in small portions. Usually there is not enough food for all the refugees.
For people seeking asylum in Moria, essentials as water and food can only be acquired by waiting in hugely long queues. Also other facilities such as showers, toilets and water taps can only be used after waiting in queues for hours. There is no system in place that checks if one already has had food and water, resulting in refugees cheating by going back in the same queue. Therefore people frequently become anxious, frustrated and irascible in the queue because resources are limited, most of the times there is not even a portion per person. And thus, even after waiting for more than eight hours, people return to their families empty-handed. Upon that, the highly militarised setting of the queues often brings back traumas or symptoms of a post traumatic stress disorder.
