The transcript discusses a nonprofit's efforts to distribute backpacks and suitcases to migrants in Calais, France, as the government plans to dismantle the camp. Organizations aim to convince migrants to stay in France rather than attempt to cross to Britain. The French government has announced plans to provide 10,000 spots in centers across the country. Despite preparations, the official dismantling date is not set, and signs of change are visible with reduced aid. Concerns remain about future makeshift shelters as some migrants may continue to camp out.
