Starlit Hamlet

This project started when the citizens of Essen wanted to help each other after a severe storm in 2014, with the initiative becoming a firmly established organisation and an example of how to efficiently organise in the age of social media.

The community centre in the "dead zone" between Turkish and Greek Cyprus adapts to the needs of the communities and keeps its workshops and programmes free-of-charge and open for all to join.

An outdoor adventure playground gives children the opportunity to explore nature with their peers under the supervision of specially trained play workers.
