Back to newsGreek Deputy Minister of Migration and Asylum Sevi Voludaki met with Education Minister Sofia Zacharaki to discuss the creation of an Experimental School in Kandanos, a historic village in the Sfakia region of southwestern Crete. The initiative aims to strengthen educational opportunities in the area and raise the academic profile of this rural part of the island. Kandanos is known for its role in Cretan resistance during World War II and sits amid the rugged landscapes of the Selino plateau, making it a destination for visitors interested in history and authentic village life. This investment in local infrastructure reflects broader efforts to develop the less-visited southwestern corner of Crete, an area worth exploring for travelers seeking to move beyond the northern coastal resorts.
