#I would stay home if I had one. The impact of the COVID19 crisis on unauthorized migrants in Amsterdam.

The current COVID-19 crisis also affects unauthorized migrants, i.e. rejected asylum seekers, informal migrant workers and others without the right to reside in the Netherlands. Despite the advice to stay home some of them were literally in the streets as the municipality of Amsterdam offered only shelter during the night in the beginning of the crisis. Informal migrant workers feared a similar situation as they could not work and had no income due to the crisis. In the last of a series of blogs based on ongoing research at Utrecht University we discuss the impact of the corona crisis on unauthorized migrants in Amsterdam.
