The goals of this competition are to be pointed out above all the reasons of immigration and the analysis of the problems of the immigrants.

The problems of the illegal immigration employ us in the whole world each day ever more. Humans, who are transporters illegally from a country to another, the either at hunger and suffering or as we in the last months frequently experienced, drown on grausemer way in the sea. The powerlessness of the states before this problem and the inability to find a durable solution increase this kind of tragedies each year. -Don Quichotte- hopes by the diversion of the attention by designs, its contribution for the identification of a durable solution, carries out to be able.
