Kayaking in the park’s canal!

22.07.2025

A recreational, sporting and cultural activity that they have been waiting for a long time was carried out by unaccompanied teenagers living in METAdrasi’s Semi-Autonomous Living apartments in Athens.

The children get to know the most creative corners of the city, mix with the local population, practice the Greek language and adapt to a new way of life.

Visits like this one in the pleasant environment of the Stavros Niarchos Park help them significantly in this effort.

Metadrasi - Canal 2


METAdrasi launched in 2018 the pilot activity of semi-autonomous living for unaccompanied minors aged 16 to 18, aiming at their smooth transition to adulthood and their integration into the Greek society. From June 2024 the activity “Supervised Semi-Autonomous Living Apartments” is funded by the “Programme Greece – Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund 2021-2027”, co-funded by the European Union.
