Refugee Week kicked off yesterday for the first time in history in Greece.

A series of special events will mark Refugee Week Greece from June 20-26, in an extended version of World Refugee Day.

An initiative of the Athens Comics Library, in cooperation with UK-based organization Counterpoints Arts and the support of the Comic Relief Across Borders program, this is the first time the event takes place in Greece.

Comprising workshops, lectures, cultural events and stand-up comedy shows, Refugee Week Greece will take place in Athens, the northern port city of Thessaloniki, the eastern Aegean island of Lesvos, on Crete and elsewhere.

WHAT IS REFUGEE WEEK?

Refugee Week is a global and dynamic movement, a cultural festival celebrating the contribution, creativity and authenticity of people having experienced forced migration. It takes place every year on the 20th of June, on World Refugee Day. This year, it is coming to Greece with the initiative of Athens Comics Library, in collaboration with Counterpoints Arts, supported by Comic Relief Across Borders programme.
