The number of people who die while trying to seek sanctuary here.
We know our policies kill people. Their deaths must not be ignored.

No one’s death should be ignored.
The bare minimum we owe people who've died while asking for our protection is to record and remember their lives, to prevent future deaths, and end the deadly dehumanisation of people seeking sanctuary.
