Program
“From Athens to London: Shape Your Future”
In view of 2012 Olympic Games join us in an initiative that originates
in Greece and is addressing young people around the world!
Luckily there is
still hope for young people to have a say in shaping their future! This is the
main message deriving from youngsters in various cities in Greece and other
European countries visited by the team of the program “From Athens to London: Shape Your Future”. The program is an
initiative originating in Greece and organized by MATHITIADA, an educational youth institution focusing on culture
and sports.
A series of events has been scheduled in Greece and other European
countries in order to approach the youth and further discuss the scope of the
program: to unite young people around the world, helping them raise their
voices, make their opinions heard, and most importantly, considered!
The program is currently in London, where representatives had the
opportunity to offer Lady Victoria Borwick, Deputy Mayor of London, an olive
tree, as the symbol of the Olympic Games and the city of Athens, as well as the
Olympic spirit and ideals represented by MATHITIADA.
With a warm wish for successful Olympic Games, the olive tree was handed over
by Pyrros Dimas, Olympic Champion and Ambassador of the program, at a specially
organized event that was hosted in the context of the Host City Reception
organized by the Mayor of London, Boris Johnson (July 27, 2012).
In addition, the
presentation of the program “From Athens
to London: Shape your Future” in London will be held at the “House of Hellenes”
(July 29, 2012), with the presence of Pyrros Dimas.
The program “From Athens to
London: Shape Your Future” (a sequel of the respective program “From Athens to Beijing” in 2008) has
been granted the official support of the European
Parliament Information Office and the European Committee Delegation in Greece,
the International Olympic Truce Center,
the Association of European Journalists,
the Municipality of Athens, AIESEC, Aegean Airlines and DEPA (Greek Public Gas Corporation).
