Short films made by children 

In the program "short films made by children" children express their concerns, their concerns, and dreams, and more broadly how they see the world and their lives. In this way, we want to compose an overall picture of how children live in different countries and continents and contribute to familiarizing children with other cultures and with the concept of diversity. Children have the right to express themselves and to be heard. Article 13 of the International Convention on the Rights of the Child.

Online Program:

The films are screened under Greek subtitles
