A year without Maria Piniou-Kalli

26.01.2016

A year ago, we lost an important member of our team, Maria Piniou-Kalli, METAdrasi’s expert from 2011 on Certification of Torture Victims’ issues. A woman who devoted her life struggling for the eradication of torture and the support and rehabilitation of torture victims.

In our memory will always remain her dynamic, enthusiastic presence, full of passion for her work and love for people.

As our older interpreters remember from Maria Piniou-Kalli’s presentations at METAdrasi’s interpreters’ educational seminars, one of her favorite subjects was Alexandros Panagoulis and the soul power he showed during his confinement.

In the video, Maria Piniou-Kalli talks about Panagoulis and his poems.
