This will be done gradually. In this first phase, the objective is the classification of qualifications within the formal educational system of the country. At a later stage a classification system will be developed for qualifications acquired through non-formal education and informal learning. The HQF is a mechanism, which facilitates transparency and comparability in the Greek context. It will be a benefit for students, graduates and stakeholders of the Greek labour market. On the other hand, in accordance with the common European strategy “Europe 2020”, which aims at smart, sustainable and inclusive growth the Hellenic Qualifications Framework and its referencing to the European Qualifications Framework provides a tool for “trans- lating” and comparing qualifications and aims at becoming an opportunity to help promote the mobility of learners and employees. The Ministry of Education, Research and Religious Affairs supervises the implementation of the Hellenic Qualifica- tions Framework and coordinates the parties which are involved in this Framework, in accordance with the provi- sions of Law 3879/2010 “Development of Lifelong Learning and other provisions” and of Law 4115/2013 “Organi- sation and operation of Institution for Youth and Lifelong Learning and the National Organisation for Certification of Qualifications and Vocational Guidance and other provisions”. The National Organisation for the Certification of Qualifications and Vocational Guidance (E.O.P.P.E.P.) is responsible for developing the Hellenic Qualifications Framework and for referencing it to the European Qualifications Frame- work, under the supervision and coordination of the Ministry of Education, Research and Religious Affairs. The proj- ect is called “Development of the National Qualifications Framework” and falls under the Operational Programme “Human Resources Development”, co-funded by the European Union (European Social Fund - ESF) and National Resources. The Intermediate Management Body is the Specific Managing Authority of the Operational Programme “Education and Lifelong Learning” of the Ministry of Education, Research and Religious Affairs. The first concerted effort for the development of the Hellenic Qualifications Framework was made by means of establishing the National Committee for Lifelong Learning in June 2008, which was set up again in May 2009 under the initiative of the General Secretariat for Lifelong Learning of the Ministry of Education and Religious Affairs1. The starting point for this decision was the Recommendation of the European Parliament and of the Council on the Es- tablishment of the European Qualifications Framework (EQF), which entered into force on 23 April 2008. In March 2010, the Ministry of Education and Religious Affairs conducted the first

Tomko Dr. Anthea Kraut Copyright Natalie Zervou 2015 The Dissertation of Natalie Zervou is approved: Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside Acknowledgments This dissertation is the result of four years of intensive research, even though I have been engaging with this topic and the questions discussed here long before that. Having been born in Greece, and having lived there till my early twenties, it is the place that holds all my childhood memories, my first encounters with dance, my friends, and my family. From a very early age I remember how I always used to say that I wanted to study dance and then move to the US to pursue my dream. Back then I was not sure what that dream was, other than leaving Greece, where I often felt like I did not belong. Being here now, in the US, I think I found it and I must admit that when I first begun my pursuit in graduate studies in dance, I was very hesitant to engage in research concerning Greece.

  • Traditional Flavours of Ioannina from DODONI and IEK DELTA
    20 December 2017 PRESS RELEASE Traditional Flavours of Ioannina from DODONI and IEK DELTA 22 to 24 December, in the central square of Ioannina DODONI Dairy Company and the IEK Delta vocational training institute in Ioannina are bidding farewell to 2017 with an event brimming with love, tastings and games. For three days, from 22 December until Christmas Eve, everyone who comes to Ioannina's central square from midday onwards will have the chance to savour authentic traditional recipes from Ioannina, prepared by acclaimed chef Adamos Dotsios and the IEK DELTA Cooking and Pastry School, featuring favourite DODONI products made from 100% Greek milk. In addition to tasting the food, young visitors will be able to demonstrate their talents as junior chefs by making and baking Christmas biscuits and taking part in other activities including Christmas crafts and face painting, offered by the relevant sections of the IEK DELTA Ioannina. This Christmas DODONI will continue to support and contribute to the local community by offering the children of the Dourachani Monastery orphanage a large quantity of pure fresh milk, with the taste of good, love and contribution. It will also donate products to ELEPAP - Rehabilitation For the Disabled - in Athens, Thessaloniki and Ioannina as well as providing financial support to FLOGA - Parents Association of Children with Cancer. It is worth mentioning that in 2017 the company made available over 110 tons of DODONI products to organisations, institutions and NGOs, that care for victims of the Greek crisis, throughout Greece. Mr. Michalis Panagiotakis, Deputy CEO of DODONI, made the following statement: ''We take great joy in implementing corporate social responsibility activities centred on man and the local community and we will continue along this same path, supporting practical initiatives that focus on solidarity, contribution, and love for our fellow citizens''.

  • An Experimental Investigation of Stress in Greek Acronyms
    Journal of Greek Linguistics 15 (2015) 187–234 brill.com/jgl Stress in the Absence of Morphological Conditioning: An Experimental Investigation of Stress in Greek Acronyms Anthi Revithiadou* Aristotle University of Thessaloniki [email protected] Kalomoira Nikolou University of the Aegean [email protected] Despina Papadopoulou Aristotle University of Thessaloniki [email protected] Abstract Greek is a morphology-dependent stress system, where stress is lexically specified for a number of individual morphemes (e.g., roots and suffixes). In the absence of lexically encoded stress, a default stress emerges. Most theoretical analyses of Greek stress that assume antepenultimate stress to represent the default (e.g., Malikouti-Drachman & Drachman 1989; Ralli & Touratzidis 1992; Revithiadou 1999) are not independently confirmed by experimental studies (e.g., Protopapas et al. 2006; Apostolouda 2012; Topintzi & Kainada 2012; Revithiadou & Lengeris in press). Here, we explore the nature of the default stress in Greek with regard to acronyms, given their lack of overt morphol- * We wish to thank the two anonymous reviewers who provided useful feedback and the audience of the icgl10 (10th International Conference on Greek Linguistics, 2011) for their comments and suggestions, which greatly improved this article.

  • Designing a New Cultural Electronic Atlas of Greece
    Designing a new Cultural Electronic Atlas of Greece Nikolaos Karanikolas, Pery Lafazani, Myron Myridis, Dimitrios Ramnalis PhD Candidate, Department of Cartography, A.U.Th1, [email protected] Lecturer Department of Cartography, A.U.Th1, [email protected] Professor Department of Cartography, A.U.Th1, [email protected] PhD Candidate, Department of Cartography, A.U.Th1, [email protected] ABSTRACT Although culture and history of Greece are of the greatest ones in the European world, the cartographic and geographic analysis of this fortune can be characterized as considerably poor. No real atlas has been developed during the last years in Greece, containing such data and maps. This new cultural electronic atlas of Greece comes to supply the new socio- economic atlas of Greece (Beijing 2001), with the cultural image of the country. The reference elements for the whole mapping are the Prefecture and every municipality across the country, according to the administrative structure in Greece. In Greece, all citizens are entitled to free education in public schools. According to the National Statistic Service, the educational system of the country is divided into 3 parts: primary education, secondary education, third higher education. For the representation of data the Educational system is separated as follows: primary school, secondary school, tertiary education-University. For the cultural data, apart from the National Statistic Service for the year 1997, the Ministry of Culture has provided precious information about the archaeological sites and museums throughout the country. More than 250 museums, 180 archaeological sites, 350 monuments have enriched this Greek Atlas with this kind of information.
