The New Continent project photographs have been featured by the World Policy Institute to illustrate the ongoing migrant crisis in the Calais area.<\/p>\n

“Just over 20\u00a0miles from Dover, the northern port city of Calais is the closest French town to England. The site is home to another chapter of what the New York Times referred to this week<\/a>\u00a0as a painful drama playing out across Europe. According to\u00a0the World Policy Institute<\/strong><\/a>, between 3,000 to 5,000 migrants, largely from East Africa and the Middle East, live in the city\u2019s resource-scarce camps, often lacking proper shelter and medical services. Many of these migrants seek to flee for Britain each night by stowing away on UK-bound trucks and ferries.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0crisis in Calais escalated this week, when thousands of migrants entered the high-traffic Channel Tunnel on July 27 and 28, reports\u00a0WPI<\/a>. One Sudanese migrant was killed in an accident, making him the ninth person to die\u00a0in an attempted tunnel crossing since June.<\/p>\n

In the series of portraits below, French photographer Phil Le Gal<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0photographs individuals living in the city\u2019s largest camp, the New Jungle<\/strong>. The images\u00a0are part of Le Gal\u2019s larger body of work documenting migrant experiences with\u00a0The New Continent<\/a><\/em>, a photo series and documentary project that aims to tell the stories of migrants living inside and outside the borders of Europe\u2019s\u00a0Schengen Area<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0photos\u00a0below are\u00a0presented with permission from Le Gal and the World Policy Institute, where they originally appeared<\/a>, with captions from\u00a0Le Gal. For more on The New Continent<\/em>,\u00a0head to the project\u2019s official page<\/a>\u00a0and follow Le Gal on\u00a0 Twitter<\/a> and Instagram<\/a>.”<\/p>\n
