Its capacity is up to 8 people, while the objective is to extend the action, by creating more spaces for the hospitality of other vulnerable groups.<\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">As METAdrasi <\/span><span lang=\"EN-US\">is not involved in funded programs for housing refugees and asylum seekers,<\/span><span lang=\"EN-US\"> the implementation of this activity started on METAdrasi&#8217;s own resources, and since April 2017 it has the valuable support of the Association for Aid Relief Japan (AAR 3) to cover part of its expenses.
