Γενικές πληροφορίες

We have been working in Greece since 1939, offering a wide range of services and activities, and have offices in Athens and Thessaloniki.

We work together with a large number of Greek organisations – ministries, universities, academic and research institutions, schools, non-governmental and cultural organisations in both the public and private sectors. We are strongly committed to equal opportunity and diversity in all aspects of our work.

We focus on three key areas – English, education and society, and the arts – and we work with three main groups of people. These include:

• society and community leaders, who can bring about changes in social, educational and cultural policy, and help us make wider connections

• influencers, including career professionals, the media, educators, artists, scientists and business leaders, who we partner with to help maximise the impact of their work and ours

• younger people, either in education or just starting out in their careers, who are opinion formers through their own social networks and potentially the next generation of national influencers and leaders.
