Summer without actions is not possible and with this idea in mind, we organized an excursion for all the teenage refugees staying at the Kinoniko EKAV’s Accommodation Centers.
 
In close cooperation with Trekking Hellas, the teenagers had the opportunity to take part in exciting activities in the Kokkino Nero area of Larissa. The excursion started with canoeing in the Pinios Delta, continued with swimming at the beach and the first day ended with archery. The second day had more surprises for the children! Walking along the path of the Karitsa gorge led the group to the lake, where they had the opportunity to enjoy the diving and the beauty of the landscape. The day continued with the descent of three waterfalls and ended with a delicious lunch and watching the Euro 2024 final at the hotel that hosted the children.
 
It was an unforgettable excursion and you can also confirm it from the photos we collected from this wonderful weekend!

For the third consecutive year, the Kinoniko EKAV collaborated with the Educational & Social Actions of the National Opera House, through the Co OPERAtive* program.

Refugee teenagers residing in the Kinoniko EKAV’s Accommodation Centres took part in the six-month workshops together with a group of Athenian teenagers, resulting in a cross-cultural musical theatre performance entitled "SUPER" on Friday, May 31st!

On Friday, March 21, the Social EMS held the presentation of the book "Children's paths in times of war" at Impact Hub, in the center of Athens.

This book, consisting of personal stories of underage refugees, became the basis for a broad discussion regarding hospitality, rights, integration, and the causes of the uprooting of millions of people of all ages, who will always dream that one day they will return home.

Childrens'S Paths in times of war – Book Presentation

Kinoniko EKAV invites you to the

presentation of the book "Children's journeys in wartime",

Thursday 21 March, 18:30, at Impact Hub

(28 Karaiskaki 28, 300m from the metro station "Monastiraki").

More than two thousand refugee children are currently in our country. These "unaccompanied minors", as we call them somewhat coldly in administrative documents, have lost everything. Not only their home, their village or their town, like any other refugee, but also the embrace of their mother, the affection of their father, and even the simple presence of a relative.

"Children's paths in times of war" is a collection of personal testimonies from refugee children who were hosted in the Centers for Unaccompanied Minors, of the organization "Kinoniko EKAV". It is a book dedicated to children who have gone through and are going through the horrors of war. More than 2,000 of these children who have lost their families are now in our country. These "unaccompanied minors", as we call them somewhat coldly in administrative documents, have lost everything.  Not only their home, their village or their town, like any other refugee, but also the embrace of their mother, the affection of their father, and even the simple presence of a relative.
