ABSTRACT

This chapter presents the findings that result from an analysis of the fieldwork. It examines the experiences of the women concerning the setting, the migratory condition and the diasporic community, and the functioning of the red-light district of the carres. Research shows that tighter migration laws have increased the vulnerability of certain migrant groups, and this is also the case for Nigerian women in Europe. Following the death of Eunice in 2018, ten Nigerian and Ghanaian women went to the Nigerian Embassy and the local governments, demanding improved security measures in the area. Within the group of Nigerian and Ghanaian women, there are clear forms of malevolent exploitation. The issue of human trafficking was present in several ways, and while it was never the main topic of conversation, it often came up naturally in references and side comments that referred to the trafficked history of the women.
