Athens Municipality to accommodate 300 unaccompanied minors at summer camp facilities

Featured Athens Municipality to accommodate 300 unaccompanied minors at summer camp facilities

Three hundred refugee unaccompanied minors will be accommodated at the municipal summer camp facilities at Agios Andreas in Attiki until March 2020, the city of Athens announced. 

This decision is included in a Memorandum of Cooperation signed between Athens Municipality and the International Organization for Migration at an Athens City Hall assembly on Monday evening. 

The Agios Andreas camp will be prepared well ahead of the arrival annually of hosted children and adults scheduled to stay there in 2020, while the IMO will cover the facility's maintenance costs for the duration of the children's stay and for a short time after they leave, clarified the municipality of Athens.
