This page is a school project about a disaster that happened not long ago in an Italian island called Lampedusa with some African immigrants. In this web also we are going to mention different points such as opinions, historical background of immigration and also we have chosen a film to understand better the situation of immigrants.
Lampedusa is the biggest island of the Italian Pelagie Islands which are located in the Mediterranean Sea. The comune of Lampedusa is part of the Sicilian province of Agrigento.
The population is estimated to be about 4,500. Its main industries are fishing, agriculture and tourism.
