KMOP

KMOP, founded in 1977 in Greece, is a civil society organization offering social support services and implementing various programs aimed at empowering and enhancing the wellbeing of individuals and communities. In recent years, KMOP has expanded its reach globally, having a presence in Greece, Belgium, and North Macedonia. KMOP is dedicated to addressing social challenges through evidence-based solutions that promote individual and collective prosperity. Our focus is on designing and executing innovative social initiatives that enhance individual self-worth, reduce inequality, and foster inclusive and sustainable social development. KMOP supports and empowers individuals, by equipping them with the skills and competences to unleash their full potential, by educating the professionals that work with them and by raising awareness among the general public. Specifically, the organisation supports people with mental disorders and their families, children and youth with intellectual disabilities, survivors of sexual and gender-based violence, survivors of human trafficking, Roma women, elderly people, single-parent families, LGBTQI+, migrants and refugees, as well as children and students from vulnerable backgrounds. Over the past 20 years, KMOP has successfully carried out more than 400 social innovation initiatives with the support of both institutional and private donors. The organization's efforts have benefited over 85,000 individuals. Furthermore, KMOP has been acknowledged by the state and authorities and has formed permanent cooperation agreements with significant organisations and public institutions. These partnerships include signing memorandums of understanding (MoUs) with the Greek Ministry of Culture and Sports, the Ministry of Education, the Central Union of Municipalities of Greece, the Office of the Greek National Rapporteur on Trafficking in Human Beings, and CISCO's International Center for Digital Transformation and Digital Skills in Greece.
