NORDSYSTRAR -Sisters of the north

We give lectures at schools, organizations, and events to raise awareness about the refugee situation in Greece. Through collaboration with local organizations, we help build a deeper understanding of the situation and how people can contribute.

When we are in Swedish-speaking Finland, we collect clothes, hygiene products, and other essential supplies, which we then send to Greece. We also collaborate with local initiatives to raise awareness.

We collaborate with several local aid centers and organizations, including:

✔️ Bashira Center
✔️ Ariadni Center
✔️ Offene Arme
✔️ The Hope Project

Together, we collect clothing, funds, and resources to support their work and provide aid to refugees on the ground.

Through our partners on Lesvos and Chios, we organize DIY workshops for women and children in the refugee camps. During these workshops, participants create essential items needed in the camps while engaging in meaningful activities. We produce soap, skincare products, and clothing—basic necessities that are often difficult to access in the camps. In addition, we frequently arrange bread baking and cooking sessions, providing both nutrition and a sense of community. We also develop educational materials, such as our own coloring book, which represents children from different nationalities in the camps—allowing them to see themselves reflected and feel acknowledged in an often challenging reality.
