Recreational and well-being activities hold a unique place in our services. Refugee asylum-seeking and migrant women usually have limited to zero access to recreational and well-being activities.

We strongly believe that recreational and well-being activities are a vehicle for personal expression and self-development and a powerful tοοl for trauma-healing and direct and indirect psycho-social and emotional support.

We provide a safe and multicultural space where women can:

  • express themselves
  • share their unique stories and raise awareness
  • craft and create together
  • manage and release their stress and anxiety
  • cultivate their self-confidence, self-respect, and their personal growth
  • develop social skills, establish social connections and make friendships
  • build solidarity and community
  • access a safe and trusting atmosphere to express themselves, interact with each other, and share their challenges and experiences
  • develop a sense of belonging to the community and a willingness to offer and give back.

Recreational Activities are led by women within our community who feel empowered members of their communities and express their willingness to contribute with their time and skills, aiming to share their knowledge and empower their peers.

At Irida Women’s Center, we offer:

  • Arts and crafts sessions
  • Sewing classes
  • Cultural Outings

Through our recreational and well-being activities, we celebrate their unique skills and talents, harnessing this creative process to foster new channels of empowerment, support, storytelling, and advocacy.
