The weekend 10-12/09/2021 in the island of Rhodes, Fotoessa PC participated in the annual meeting of the national network of the Anna Lindh Foundation. The meeting was attended by representatives of member organisations of civil society from all over Greece. During the meeting we discussed about the report of last year’s activities, we set the goals for the coming year, we talked about what we think ALF should focus on, our member, Mrs Protogerou conducted an workshop on the handbook of the foundation on active citizenship and there were many parallel activities. 2021 was a difficult year for the proper functioning of the Greek network of the Anna Lindh Foundation, as many actions that were planned were either done online or were canceled due to the pandemic. For this reason, the priority of the Greek network was for the third national meeting to be held with physical presence, observing all protection measures as much as possible.
