An online campaign has been launched by an online campaigning community, Avaaz, that promotes activism on issues such as poverty, climate change and human rights.

The organization operates in 15 languages and claims over forty million members in 194 countries and they have now organized a new campaign requesting the residents of the Greek islands to win the Peace Prize for their response to the refugee crisis.

The “vote that the Greek Islands Receive the Nobel Peace Prize for their Contributions Aiding the Refugee Crisis,” was organized by Stephen K. from the United States.

“The residents of the Greek islands deserve the Nobel Peace Prize,” Stephen K. from USA thought and started a petition adding that:

“The native populations of the Greek Islands in the Aegean Sea (and many other external, worldwide, non-profit organizations and diaspora Greeks) have done and are doing anything possible to help the displaced Syrian refugees and make them as comfortable as possible, although they themselves have very little to offer, despite being subjected to a severe economic crisis for many years.”

“They have shown their Christ-like behavior with acts of “filotimo”, love, respect and “filoxenia” to those who are total strangers to them! Their acts and sacrifices shall not go un-noticed, because they are significant contributors to World Peace and Stability, and are clear examples of LOVE for others in the world to use and to learn from!”
