Migrants die at borders around the world. The Missing Migrants Project has dedicated itself to "track[ing] incidents involving migrants, including refugees and asylum-seekers, who have died or gone missing in the process of migration towards an international destination.” [1]. They visualize these incidents by mapping them. The maps are updated on a daily basis.
