Creating an Archive for the Refugee Crisis in the Aegean

The Department of Social Anthropology and History of the Aegean University has designed a workshop that will familiarize high school students with the concept of the archive and collective memory and especially with the creation of an archive concerning the recent history of the refugee phenomenon of the Aegean islands.

The Archive is currently supported by the action [e- Aegean Repository for Refugees], funded by the Operational Programme “Competitiveness, Entrepreneurship & Innovation” (EPAnEK 2014-2020), co-funded by the European Union (European Regional Development Fund) and national resources.

The workshop will be held for schools, at the ATE building in Mytilene.
