Mikel Konate (Spanish) Rescue Mission in the Mediterranean Sea Filmed in the Mediterranean Sea, July 2017 Self-funded. Broadcast by Reuters On July 25th 2017 Proactiva Open Arms, a Spanish NGO, faced a dramatic and complicated rescue mission in the Central Mediterranean Sea.

Mikel’s footage includes the work of the rescue mission as well as interviews of the migrants recounting their harrowing journey from the Libyan coast.  herorypeckawards Publicado el 12 sept. 2018
