Solutions for refugee crisis

19. The flood of refugees from the Middle East and Africa into the
EU seems unstoppable. Refugees placing in many countries are
not living well; they are not given adequate facilities to work &
inadequate shelter only providing the means to protect their
life. Proper solutions need to be taken & policies in this regard
should be adopted by the world leaders so that no people may
die at time of crossing the border & they should reach the safest
place without harassment.
