Stroll in Athens with a local street worker

 Tasos is a street worker with 10 years of personal experience in the streets.
He was one of the founding members of the Social Street Work project of Emfasis Foundation. 
He took part in the first Training for the Trainers of Dynamo International - Street Workers Network in Lisbon at 2013.
Since September 2015 he is one of the Founders of Gefyra/The Bridge, a non-profit organization, which approaches indiscriminately -via its social street work and social economy- people living in the street. People in Gefyra/The Bridge, aim at improving the everyday lives of homeless people in Athens by increasing their visibility, defending their rights, giving them voice as well as supporting them practically on their everyday lives. 
Tasos is also a trainer for the new members at the Street Work Project and a manager of Outreach Team Work Project. 
Following Tasos you will learn about the difficulties that homeless people face, the impact of the economic and refugee crisis but you will also have lots of fun and a unique experience of how locals have fun and spent their night. With Tasos you will be introduced to the vibrant Athenian spirit by exploring the most “hidden” places in Athens, such as authentic restaurants, cool industrial-designed bars and coffee shops that only locals know in Metaxourgeio, Gazi and Kerameikos
