"Together"

With the view to create opportunities and preconditions for coexistence and meeting between local student population and refugee children accommodated in different locations and facilities, joint creative actions are designed and promoted by the Hellenic Theatre/Drama & Education Network (TENet-Gr) and UNHCR Greece.

These include activities such as common art workshops for local and refugee youths, visits to museums, street happenings, attendance to music, dance and theatre performances etc. Such activities can facilitate intercultural communication, breaking the ice between the two populations, fighting fear and stereotypes, while mitigating the sense of marginalization among the refugee population.
