Who we are
The social enterprise ComMedi (Communities of
Mediterranean) is an independent, non-governmental, non-
profit organization dedicated to the development and
strengthening of civil society in the region of the Mediterranean.
Since its establishment ComMedi has developed a substantive
experience and expertise in the fields of active citizenship,
peace and reconciliation, development education, human rights
education, intercultural dialogue, and participation.
Our work is based on experiential learning and non-formal
education. We organize local trainings: working with schools (both
teachers and students), municipalities, embassies and local NGOs
and youth centers in cities or towns in Greece.
ComMedi also works on the international field: with the help of the
Erasmus programme we organise trainings for and together with
partners from Europe, Mediterranean and other EU countries. We
deal with outdoor education, different art methods and cognitive
behavioral coaching that brings a deep learning process through
questioning and challenging participants. We work both with KA1
and KA2 actions of Erasmus projects and other EU funded projects
as well including Creative Europe.
Our Work
We engage in capacity building activities and trainings to enhance knowledge and skills on cultural, artistic,
sustainability and civic issues;
We raise awareness about the role and impact of the civil society in the development of transparent and
democratic processes and the socioeconomic development of the society;
We engage in advocacy activities to strengthen civil society and its role vis-à-vis public institutions and the
private sector;
We implement projects and activities in the fields of active citizenship and participation, development
education, peace and reconciliation;
OUR MAGIC POWER IS TO BUILD CONNECTIONS BETWEEN PEOPLE
The vision of the ComMedi is a dynamic, active and reactive civil
society in Mediterranean that participates in and advocates for
democracy, dialogue and civic engagement.
Our general idea is to carry out socially useful activity. The
members of the organization are specialists of various fields, united
around the idea of promoting education and European awareness
among the youth and generally among the society, supporting
people, helping people with fewer opportunities in their social
integration, making youth participation in public life more active and
strengthening the principles of civil society and democracy
