"This was a socially responsibe project that put the focus on ""Refugees and immigration"" and especially on refugees minors.All of the partner countries involved have to deal with streams of refugees and thus all affected by this issue. Above all Greece,Turkey and Italy due to their geographical position and political agreements have the highest numbers of refugees.The main aim of this project was to increase social awareness in terms of understanding these people and helping them in their difficult situation.
