While COVID-19-related restrictions are starting to ease across Lesvos, we remain conscious that the disease still poses a threat to the vulnerable refugees living in and around camps on the island.
.
It's for this reason that we recently attended a COVID-19 training session together with our Olive Grove resident volunteer team, hosted by @doctorswithoutborders. The educational hour allowed our resident volunteers to learn more about the disease; what it is, how it’s spread and easy tips that can use as a means of protection and prevention.
.
We are so glad that our resident volunteers could be a part of this session. The more knowledge they gain as leaders of their community, the more they can pass onto their fellow residents in and around Moria camp.

To learn more about what we are doing in the face of COVID-19 and how you can support the refugee population on the Greek islands during this time, head to our #linkinbio.

Also, a special thanks to MSF for working with us together towards dignity during these challenging times.

“Liberation Day is the day where we were given the freedom to live the life we wanted. But especially now, that’s not possible for everyone and I am conscious of that…”
.
For talented poem writer, Troy Hurkens, this Dutch Liberation Day feels more significant than ever. Despite the challenges of corona, this day is an opportunity for us to reflect upon our freedoms and think of those who aren’t as fortunate to have theirs.
.
Over the past weeks, Troy has been selling tote bags printed with a special poem and for every bag sold, she has donated the funds to our mission at Movement On The Ground. The poem on Troy’s bag is synonymous not only with the corona crisis and our mission on the Greek islands to bring dignity to the refugee population but now, also with Dutch Liberation Day. .
That’s why; she is using this day as a platform, to continue to spread the hope in which her tote bag and poem symbolises – and we want to help her spread that message.
.
You can head to our #linkinbio to learn more about Troy’s heartfelt initiative and to get in contact with her about purchasing one of her symbolic tote bags.

#togethertowardsdignity #COVID19 Due to this challenging time of corona, we have had to temporarily pause our sports program that we run together with the @fundaciofcb.
.
While we are unable to currently provide this program for the men, women and children of Moria camp and Kara Tepe, we want to continue to share their touching personal stories and why this program means so much to them.
.
Pictured is 17-year-old, Afghani born Fereydoon. Over the past year and a half he has volunteered with us as a sports coach. He uses his role as a way not only to teach practical sporting skills but important values of honesty, integrity and determination to the children he coaches.
.
Both on and off the pitch, Fereydoon is incredibly driven, he always trying to give the best of himself. His commitment to his fellow coaches and the children he cares for is truly heart warming.
.
We feel privileged to have Fereydoon as a leader within our program. We hope once restrictions ease and the threat of corona subsides, we will be able to have him return to the football field to continue to spread his positive message and great coaching skills.
.
