I can't stress this enough: if it wasn't for the amazing solidarity activists/volunteers, many more refugees would die & suffer in Greece

Many Lesvos locals help the refugees & support volunteers, but activists are also criticized, impeded, threatened. It'll get worse in winter

Lesvos was mainstream throughout the summer, when the going was easy. Consider reporting from it in the winter too, it'll make a difference.

There's just enough time for infrastructural prep to shield refugees during the winter. State/INGOs must step up the work, not just rhetoric
