RfG: Inform here – support on site

Who we are:

In March of 2015, citizens of Berlin came together to found the non-profit organisation “Respekt für Griechenland”.

The organisation was founded as a critical response to the politics of the European Union under the opinion leadership of the German government towards Greece. We started with informative events about the grave consequences of European lenders’ terms for the Greek population. Later, we were concerned also with other topics. Simultaneously, we developed contacts with Greek partners, and today, our practical activities have priority. We have around 40 active members, of whom most have experience in politics or social movements.

What we do:

  • We organise events to inform about the political development in Europe and especially Greece

  • We send out volunteers to support refugees in Lesvos, Athens and Thessaloniki

  • We help to build up multiple ecological and climate protection projects together with partners in Greece

  • We run the campaign “Germany’s war guilt and obligations towards Greece”

  • We support self-empowerment projects such as “Pervolarides” in Thessaloniki or “SoliOli”.
