An exhibition of hospitality
In 2015, more than 800,000 people fleeing persecution and poverty put their lives in danger during perilous
sea crossings in search of safety and dignity in Europe. At a time of urgent humanitarian need, and while a
negative public narrative about migration was developing, the Greek people showed exemplary compassion
and solidarity.
Oxfam and Amnesty International Greece wanted to acknowledge and celebrate the solidarity of the Greek
people, who welcomed into their country those who had to flee theirs, and to encourage their continued
support.
