Mission Statement
WWBT aims to empower, educate and uplift refugee and migrants through community education centers. We build safe spaces where communities can step out of the daily stress of the refugee camp into a peaceful physical space, free to cultivate mind and body.
Description
WWBT leases property next to refugee camps and transforms them into safe spaces and community learning centers.
Our programs focus on enhancing personal safety, health, happiness, education and dignity - with a prioritization on the most vulnerable.
We work in partnership with the refugee community to host the programs they want and need. The current programming at our Sports, Arts, and Wellness Center in Greece includes but not limited to: english, music, women's group therapy, multi cultural dance, physical fitness, yoga, women's self defense, movement for children with special needs, elementary education, talk and art therapy.
