Refugee Education is seeking a long-term youth worker 

Refugee Education Chios is founded and managed by the NGO “be aware and share” (BAAS). We are a non-profit organisation from Switzerland established in September 2015 with the original aim to provide and distribute clothing and food for refugees travelling on the so called “Balkan Route”. 

After a series of short term humanitarian relief operations, we decided to set up a long term crisis response project on the island of Chios, Greece. Over a three month period we ensured food security, distributed clothing and provided emergency support on the shores of Chios Island. After it became impossible for refugees to pass the borders in Europe, in May 2016 we adapted our working strategies to the new situation and established Refugee Education Chios. 

From starting with one school with two classrooms, we have successfully, over the last ten months, built the largest education system for refugee children on Chios Island, with two non-formal schools and a youth centre. In a constant environment of stress, uncertainty and boredom, we have responded to the need for structured and meaningful daily routines that take children out of the horrid conditions of the camps and attempt to establish a sense of normality.

These institutions are all voluntary run.
