The students of the HELIOS project celebrated the completion of their studies

11.07.2023

After six months of intensive studies at the Integration Learning Center, filled with emotions, joys and difficulties that were overcome, the students proudly received their graduation certificates.

Of course, such a moment could not be celebrated without a lot of music. Thanks to the intercultural orchestra El Sistema Greece and the wonderful musical company they provided, our event hit the most joyful note!

We would like to thank El Sistema orchestra, as well as International Rescue Committee for their cooperation in the implementation of the soft skills courses throughout the term, and for their help in organizing this celebration.


METAdrasi is a key partner of IOM Greece for the implementation of the HELIOS project in Athens. The HELIOS project aims to support beneficiaries of international protection to integrate into Greek society offering a variety of services promoting independent living including rental subsidies, integration courses and employability support. The project as of January 1st 2022 is funded through the co-financed part of the Public Investment Programme of the Ministry of Migration and Asylum.
