  • The migratory exodus from Senegal to the Canary Islands is happening in inhumane conditions, with thousands of people fleeing from misery.
  • Over 21,000 people have reached the Canary Islands in 2024, an unprecedented figure.
  • The migratory flow has collapsed assistance centers all over Spain.
  • The Government shows a severe inaction in the face of this crisis, only trying to impose enforced quotas for unaccompanied minors.
  • A national strategy needs to be established, with the central Administration's participation in negotiations and financial aid.
  • Migration policy should also be addressed from the EU's community policy.
  • Traditional parties should address the issue to prevent the growth of populism.
  • The migratory phenomenon is impacting security, public services, and potentially contributing to the rise of radicals in Europe.

Conclusion: The mass migration from Senegal to the Canary Islands is a considerable issue that demands national and international attention. It requires a strategic and collaborative response to effectively manage it with caution and humanity. The current government approach is insufficient and inadequate.
