Velos Youth participates in and shares its work through many different forums and co-ordination platforms including UNHCR-led Education and Child Protection meetings.

In 2018, Velos Youth presented it’s work on Education Engagement at the Greece National Education Sector Working Group (see here). Velos Youth was also invited to present our work and views on minors’ detention in Greece at the 2018 NEXUS Global Summit.

We also participate in the Athens Municipality ACCMR Urbanisation, Livelihoods and Education meetings, and in Grassroots coordination education and general assembly meetings.
