HALMSTAD, SWEDEN - FEBRUARY 09: A child looks from the window of his barrack in an asylum seekers' temporary camp in the Strandparken Ostra Straden summer holidays resort on February 9, 2016 in Halmstad, Sweden. Swedish Migration Agency is struggling to accomodate its assylum seekers and it is helping with up to 500 Swedish Krona (53Euro) who can house refugees in houses susch a hotels, campings, holidays resorts or any empty building in good conditions. Last year Sweden received 162,877 asylum applications, more than any European country proportionate to its population. According to the Swedish Migration Agency, Sweden housed more than 180,000 people in 2015, more than double the total in 2014. The country is struggling to house refugees in proper conditions during the harsh winter; summer holiday resorts, old schools and private buildings are being turned into temporary shelters for asylum seekers as they wait for a decision on their asylum application. Sweden is facing new challenges on its migration policy after the massive arrival of refugees last year, forcing the country to drastically reduce the number of refugees passing through its borders. Stricter controls have had a significant effect on the number of arrivals, reducing weekly numbers from 10,000 to 800. The Swedish migration minister announced in January that the government will reject up to 80,000 refugees who applied for asylum last year, proposing strict new residency rules.
