Ukrainian teenage scouts joined the 39th meeting of the Greek Plast Scouts in Rethymno, Crete

The participants of the event were parents and children who, as a result of the full-scale invasion, were forcibly displaced from Ukraine and found refuge in northern Greece, where they joined the Scouting movement.

About 70 communities of senior scouts in Greece Πρόσκοποι took part in theater, music, dance and film festivals, exhibitions, excursions and workshops, as well as sports competitions.

To raise interest in Ukrainian culture and traditions among Greek scouts, the participants conducted a research on “Similarities and differences between Ukraine and Greece”, which included an interview with the representative of Консульство України в Салоніках / Προξενείο της Ουκρανίας στη Θεσσαλονίκη Yevhen Shkvyra. In April he held a meeting with Svitlana Pavlova, the Ukrainian representative of the Thessaloniki Scout Movement.
