The venue

The Annual General Meeting and the Opening Social Dinner of the 13th International Seminar will take place at the Myrtillo Cafe, a social cooperative where 90% of its staff belongs to vulnerable groups. Myrtillo is situated in the Park Kapaps. The KAPAPS buildings (Centers for the Rehabilitation of Disabled Veterans of Psychiko) were constructed after World War II with funding from Norway. Once equipped with machinery, they were handed over to Greece in 1957 to serve as training centers for war-disabled individuals. Thanks to this remarkable donation, for several decades, hundreds of young men and women with disabilities were trained in various trades and crafts, including machining, carpentry, watchmaking, tailoring, shoemaking, bookbinding, and more.
