“I want to go to school and feel like all children!”

Refugee and migrant children need to have access to education; it is essential for their psycho-social development and their smooth integration into society. This video was created using words, expressions and drawings of our students, who originate from various countries.

METAdrasi’s educational activity in Athens is being realised in cooperation with the “Open Schools” programme of the Municipality of Athens, which operates with Stavros Niarchos Foundation as fοunding donor, with the coordination of Athens Partnership and John S. Latsis Public Benefit Foundation as activities supporter.
From 1/3/2018 to 31/12/2018, METAdrasi’s activity was funded by European Commission’s Civil Protection & Humanitarian Aid Operations department (ECHO), while since 1/1/2019, the Organisation continues the implementation of the activity with own resources and with the valuable contribution of volunteers.
