With his active involvement, the text was translated and carefully edited into Greek\u2014ensuring that his unique style and voice shined through.<\/p>\n<p>In June, thanks to the encouragement of Festival Director Ms. Tsiropina, we added another magical element: live background music by Markella, a talented student of the Chios Music School. Through rehearsals and teamwork, M. saw his story come alive in a truly enchanting way.<\/p>\n<p>The Festival closed with a wonderful party filled with food, music, and laughter &#8211; where both M. and our student connected with peers from across Greece and Spain. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made this experience possible &#8211; a true testament to the power of storytelling, creativity, and community!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"x14z9mp xat24cr x1lziwak x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><em>Since August 2023, METAdrasi\u2019s Accommodation Facility for Unaccompanied Minors in Chios, operates with the support of the Migration and Home Affairs Funds (TAMEY), co-funded by the European Union.<\/em><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-26113877 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/metadrasi.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/OMHRIDES.webp\" alt=\"Metadrasi -\" width=\"1920\" height=\"528\" title=\"Metadrasi -\" srcset=\"https:\/\/metadrasi.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/OMHRIDES.webp 1920w, https:\/\/metadrasi.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/OMHRIDES-1280x352.webp 1280w, https:\/\/metadrasi.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/OMHRIDES-980x270.webp 980w, https:\/\/metadrasi.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/OMHRIDES-480x132.webp 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1920px, 100vw\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"x14z9mp xat24cr x1lziwak x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-26111912\" src=\"https:\/\/metadrasi.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/LOGOS-TAMEY-METAdrasi-GR.webp\" alt=\"Metadrasi -\" width=\"1037\" height=\"157\" title=\"Metadrasi -\" srcset=\"https:\/\/metadrasi.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/LOGOS-TAMEY-METAdrasi-GR-980x149.webp 980w, https:\/\/metadrasi.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/LOGOS-TAMEY-METAdrasi-GR-480x73.webp 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1037px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two young refugees supported by METAdrasi taking part in the 4th Panhellenic Student Festival \u201cNei Omirides\u201d in Chios!
