We Need Books was conceived in 2016 with the aim to encourage individuals and communities to grow and integrate through education. Our vision is to build an inclusive community and provide access to knowledge in spaces that encourage communication. So far we have created two libraries, one in Schisto and one in Kypseli in collaboration with Caritas Athens. Together they have over 1.600 books in five languages, forming the largest collection of Farsi books available in Greece and they serve a combined population of approximately 1.200 refugees. Since September 2018 we are participating in a pilot programme run by the Municipality of Athens. We have been given a space to create a small scale multilingual library! Even though the space is small (we could fit less than 1/4 of the books we have) it still has a large variety of reading material for teens and adults and an impressive children's section. We have books in over 10 languages, Greek, English, French, Arabic, Farsi, Urdu, Italian, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, German and more, but most importantly, our library is open to everyone who just wants to read, reflect, or socialise!
