Moria Academia is a self-organised educational initiative run for and by people who are living in the Moria 2.0 camp on Lesvos island in Greece.
Following the fires that devastated the original Moria Hotspot, ODD launched a Spaces that Care campaign to enable actors on the ground to provide their services in alternative settings that uphold peoples right to dignity and architecture. The Moria Academia Mobile Classrooms is one such project, designed in collaboration with architecture students from Umeå University in Sweden.
In April 2021, the refurbishment of two tour buses was completed, bringing some much-needed flexible teaching spaces to residents.
