Welcome to Paréa!

 

Paréa is our community center on Lesvos, where we offer a welcoming environment to everyone.

Thousands of people on the move are still trapped on Lesvos. Since the fires of Camp Moria in 2020, the Greek island has almost disappeared from public perception - but people are still living here in prison-like conditions for months and years in waiting.  With our community center, we want to give people on the move a little hope and bring organizations together in solidarity.

Paréa Lesvos provides a safe space for refugees and is a home for 11 other organizations. The center is located in close proximity to the camp in Kara Tepe, Lesvos and is visited daily by camp residents. It offers space to stay in a positive & safe environment, including free drinks and lunch. Here, people have the opportunity to take advantage of offers from a wide variety of organizations.

Opening hours

Monday to Friday: 10:00 - 16:00
Saturday & Sunday: Closed
