In the area of ​​Thesprotia there are: five (5) Traditional Settlements, characterized as “traditional”. They were created from the 15th to the 19th century during the Turkish occupation in Greece and have a rare aesthetic, urban and historical value. Our Center has been implementing education-related education programs at national level since 2008.
The aim of the program was to educate and train adults to take initiatives that will reveal the beauty of traditional characteristics in each region and at the same time create start-ups in the context of environmental sustainability. The interventions focused on the restoration works that managed to restore and restore the original atmosphere and the original buildings and buildings: the preservation, restoration and restoration of buildings and building complexes and their arrangement Accommodation or other public uses , public buildings, community office, handmade weaving workshop, museums, restaurants, mills, watermills, etc.).
