Η στιγμή της υπέρβασης μας ανήκει
Foteini Konstantopoulou
Foteini Konstantopoulou is a policeman and author of children’s books. She lives and works in Athens. In her spare time, she helps the heroes of her stories in their sweet and salty ‘missions’. She loved fairy tales as a child; as a teenager, she always travels using her dreams as a compass. She started to capture the images and feelings, which she derived from her trips, in her first short story “Moments”. Her second book, “A Sugar Recipe”, is the first Greek book to be published under the auspices of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees. The author has received honorable recognition for this, as well as for her valuable contribution to the global “Back2School” campaign, which supports refugee children’s access to education. Indeed, in February 2016, she became the first woman in Greece to receive the title of “High UNHCR Supporter Profile”.
