epa11846360 Bineta Dieng, 57, stands on the beach in Bargny, 30 kilometres west of Dakar, Senegal, 17 January 2025 (issued 23 January 2025). In October 2023 on this same location, her 19-year-old daughter Maimouna boarded a pirogue with over 100 would-be migrants and left Senegal for Spain in search of better opportunities and disappeared forever.'Nobody (of the more than a hundred who were travelling on the boat) has been recovered,' Dieng said. According to figures from the European Border and Coast Guard Agency (Frontex), more than 87,000 people arrived in Spain via the Atlantic route in 2023 and 2024, coming not only from Senegal but also from countries such as Mauritania and Gambia. In Bargny, the local government estimates that nearly 3,000 people from the settlement have taken this migratory route in the last two years. Bargny symbolises one of the greatest tragedies of emigration and the intersection between environmental deterioration and socio-economic fragility in coastal cities in Senegal. EPA/JEROME FAVRE
