Blindspots is a non-profit association that offers direct support to people in areas of humanitarian and political crisis. We document discrimination and systematic violence to draw attention to human rights violations and to generate political pressure.

We are in direct contact with the people affected, work closely with local and international organizations and strive to involve the local population in our projects.

With our work at the EU’s external borders, we want to improve people’s living conditions, support them in covering their basic needs and increase their security and autonomy.

Through public outreach we want to draw attention to those places of humanitarian and political crises. We regularly report on the situation in the places where we are active and document current developments on our blog and on our social media channels. We actively contribute to political education with workshops, lectures and speeches in Germany.

We demand freedom of movement for everyone, safe passages from war zones and for all persecuted people, and an immediate end to all forms of violence and injustice by the EU border regime.
