Mineo, Sicily, Italy, April 2015<br /> In the region of Catania, Sicily, lies the biggest center for asylum seekers in Europe, &quot;CARA&quot; (Centro di Accoglienza per Richiedenti Asilo), near the village of Mineo. Over four thousand migrants live in this ancient village built initially to host families of US army soldiers, from a military base nearby. The center is built like a real village with its health center, nursery, administrative buildings, dining hall, stadium ... After what is often a dreadful crossing of the Mediterranean Sea, the survivors have to wait up to fifteen months to obtain a possible residence permit.
