“….. I was very pleased to learn about this worthwhile educational initiative that promotes interdisciplinary academic dialogue, while inspiring student leadership. Students from diverse backgrounds will benefit significantly from the new educational platform that the Greek Association for Atlantic and European Cooperation is currently launching…”
"...Four years ago I got a chance to experience the pros and cons of working in the international environment and to see non-formal educational programs from the both sides – as a student and as one of the coordinators. Such experience made me to reshape the paradigms I had about the education, and to throw myself out of any comfort zone possible. All the experience I have gained playing in the international sand box for a couple of years has made me to think about the purpose of the non-formal education and why everyone should expose himself/ herself to it in more challenging and diverse ways..."
