DESCRIPTION:Over 10\,000 child migrants have gone missing since arriving i
 n Europe\, according to Europol. While some may have travelled to family o
 r friends in Europe without reporting it\, it is feared that many have fal
 len into the hands of drug gangs\, human traffickers\, while others have b
 een sold into the sex industry. They have all but disappeared.\n\nThe plig
 ht of unaccompanied child migrants is one of the most pressing issues in t
 he so-called migrant crisis. The goal of this project is to recover the st
 ories of these missing children. Lost children comprises a team of investi
 gative journalists from the Netherlands\, Belgium\, Italy and the UK\, who
  are collaborating to find out what has happened to these missing children
 . The project is supported by BBC Radio 4 News\, VPRO\, Il Fatto Quotidian
 o\, and the Investigative Journalism for the EU Fund. The project is also 
 about what citizen journalists working in the Europe and elsewhere can ach
 ieve. \n\nThe panel will share the stories of the disappeared\, and talk a
 bout the background and policies that have led us to where we are.\n______
