Voice of Greece, ERT’s global broadcasting service reaching the Greek Diaspora worldwide, is participating in—and providing full journalistic coverage of—the 2nd Greek Youth Diaspora Symposium: “Diaspora Dialogues: Connecting Young Voices around the World”, taking place at the “Hellenic Cosmos” Cultural Centre from 25 to 28 November 2025.
This is the second year the Symposium is being held in Athens, an initiative of the General Secretariat for Greeks Abroad and Public Diplomacy. The event brings together young people of the Greek Diaspora with the aim of strengthening their ties with the homeland and deepening their engagement with contemporary Greek life.
The young participants emerge as Youth Diaspora Ambassadors, committed to undertaking initiatives that promote and spotlight Greek culture globally. Journalists from Voice of Greece will be present throughout the four days to meet them and report on all developments—through interviews conducted both at the Symposium venue and from the studios of Hellenic Radio, within the station’s news and current-affairs programmes.
On Tuesday, 25 November, the opening day of the Symposium, the Director of Voice of Greece, Elena Karagianni, will moderate a panel titled “The Greek Language as a Global Cultural Heritage”, featuring the participation of young representatives from the Diaspora. Also attending will be Menos Deliotzakis, Head of ERT’s Department for Greeks Abroad, while Natasa Vissarionos, Chief Editor for Diaspora Affairs, will provide journalistic coverage of the first day.
On Wednesday, 26 November, Prokopis Agelopoulos will be at the Symposium venue for interviews with Youth Diaspora Ambassadors, as well as for a discussion with the General Secretary for Greeks Abroad of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Maira Myrogianni. These interviews will be broadcast as part of the program “Take Your Time”.
Coverage will continue on Thursday, 27 November, and Friday, 28 November, with Katerina Batzaki and Dimitris Kontogiannis,with interviews that will be aired as part of their programs on Voice of Greece.
