On Monday, April 12, the Foreign Minister of the Hellenic Republic Nikos Dendias paid a visit to the Greek Community at the Benghazi European School, Code on the Road’s valued partner in Libya.

The Benghazi European School has been providing both Greeks and Libyans in Benghazi with internationally competitive education for over 20 years. Read more about this Greek-founded school in my city here: https://www.bes-edu.org/
In 2013, Ansar al-Sharia stormed the school. In 2014, they abducted its British head teacher. Their campaign of terror in Benghazi forced the school to shutdown but not for long.

Today, the Benghazi European School is still standing and continues to deliver world-class education to the residents of Benghazi, Libya’s second capital.
