Grupa Granica: Human rights lawyer and activist Marta Górczyńska

As part of the Grupa Granica (engl. Border Group) network , they fight tirelessly for refugees and migrants on the Belarusian border, mostly against the resistance of the Polish government and its authorities. According to Marta Górczyńska, those are primarily responsible for the enormous human suffering at the border.

“It is the politicians who sign laws for pushbacks. And it is the authorities, the officials, who implement these laws. Those who force migrants to cross a border river back into Belarus in sub-zero temperatures, accepting the possible death of these people, must be held accountable.”
