The Academy of Athens and the General Secretariat for Greeks Abroad & Public Diplomacy of the Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs have organized a one-day conference dedicated to the Greek Diaspora, entitled “Greek Diaspora – History, Achievements, and Contributions to Greece”.
Through this event, both institutions aim at providing an overall, objective, view on the two-way connection between Greeks or those of Greek ethnic background that live in other countries and their homeland, while providing a comprehensive approach to a multidimensional chapter of Greek national history.
In this context, presentations by prominent experts and personalities will be hosted, focusing on various scientific and cultural fields – Physical Sciences, Ethical and Political Sciences, as well as Letters and the Fine Arts.
The event will be held in a hybrid form, in compliance with all health protocols due to Covid-19, and will include the physical presence of most speakers and a restricted number of participants, as well as live streaming available on: http://www.academyofathens.gr/el/conferences/diaspora2021 for a worldwide audience.
