Our Academic and Scientific Network aims to bring together the efforts of Greek scientists working on European Integration and Governance as well as on the position of Greece in the European Union with a view to address modern challenges on these issues. Particular emphasis is put on the use of the experience and knowledge of practitioners, namely prominent specialists from relevant professional areas (diplomats, executives of international organizations, entrepreneurs, etc.).
Constant pursuit of the Centre is the continuous effort, with the help of distinguished scientists, specialists and experts to record opinions, reflections and recommendations on the Europeanisation of Greece, its evaluation and the exploration of exiting options of our country from the crisis and the upgrading of its position within a highly competing Europe and internationally.
