SAFE SPACES
A tough road ahead: Unaccompanied minors in Greece face uncertain futures

The journey for unaccompanied minors (UAMs) arriving in Greece often doesn’t end there. Despite safe accommodations provided in UAM shelters, many young people find themselves compelled to continue onward through Europe, seeking stability, security, and opportunities for themselves and their families.

Many shelters report that, even with support and resources available, unaccompanied minors often run away, choosing risky, irregular routes over waiting for formal procedures.
There are many reasons for this urgency. Cultural expectations place immense pressure on young boys - often only 15 to 17 years old - to provide financially for their families. Driven by this sense of duty, they take the riskier path to countries where they feel they will have better job prospects and can send money home. Even when options exist for family reunification through legal processes like the Dublin III Regulation, they still prefer irregular travel, often mistrusting government systems and fearing long delays.

Unfortunately, these risks compound the trauma they already face. Many of these minors have experienced severe neglect, with professionals witnessing symptoms like fear and deep mistrust of adults. When youth are expected to support their families at such a young age, this burden takes a toll on their emotional and psychological well-being. Professionals report signs of physical and emotional neglect, which can have long-term consequences, from isolation and self-esteem issues to difficulties in forming trusting relationships.

In this high-stakes journey, minors without stable support networks risk exploitation, trafficking, and even fatal accidents. It’s essential to provide these young people with safe, understanding spaces where they can process their experiences and feel supported.

We’re happy to share the very first newsletter of the Leaders for Future project, co-funded by the European Union 🇪🇺 and dedicated to empowering young women entrepreneurs across the Balkan region.

Our kick-off meeting in Podgorica (Montenegro) set the tone for an inspiring collaboration ahead, uniting partners from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Greece, Kosovo, Norway, and Spain 🤝
✅ Our Approach
1. CAPACITY BUILDING We train youth workers to become mentors, supporting young women in developing entrepreneurial skills, leadership, and active citizenship.
2. SUPPORT HUBS We establish local support points where young women can access guidance, tailored workshops, and peer networks to help them create their own business or social initiatives.
3. AWARENESS AND ADVOCACY Through public campaigns and community engagement, we promote gender equality, challenge stereotypes, and raise awareness of the importance of women’s leadership.
4. OPPORTUNITIES AND RECOGNITION We organise national and international competitions to showcase innovative business ideas led by young women, offering them visibility, funding, and networking opportunities.
