Executive Summary
Argolic Gulf Environment Foundation Scoping Report – Executive Summary July 2021 Introduction The Argolic Gulf Environment Foundation (AGEF) was established in the spring of 2021 in order to help protect and regenerate the natural ecosystems of the Argolic Gulf, which is situated along the eastern coast of the Peloponnese in Greece and home to the islands of Spetses and Hydra. The AGEF is part of the Conservation Collective, a growing network of locally focused environmental foundations. The Conservation Collective and its members facilitate funding for the most effective grassroots environmental initiatives, with world-class oversight, management and programme aid. The network currently comprises 15 foundations across 4 continents. The AGEF is the seventh such foundation to be established in the Mediterranean and the third in Greece after the Ionian Environment Foundation and the Cyclades Preservation Fund. Approximately 100,000 euros was raised in initial committed funding for the AGEF from individuals who care deeply about this special corner of Greece, and a Steering Committee was formed comprising a core team of donors. Additional funding will be sought from individual donors, local enterprises and other organisations. The AGEF will follow the Conservation Collective’s proven model of environmental grant giving that is nimble, non-bureaucratic, and highly effective. The bulk of the funds raised will be used to support local organisations and initiatives that aim to promote environmental protection, sustainability and resilience through small-scale direct grants. These grants will be complemented by other forms of support, such as connecting local groups and enterprises with the broad expertise available through the Conservation Collective.

En En Notice to Members
EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT 2009-2014 Committee on Petitions 31.07.2017 NOTICE TO MEMBERS Subject: Petition 1152/2010 by Georgios Toussas (Greek), on behalf of the Greek Communist Party (KKE), on environmentally damaging activities in the Ermioni municipality of the north-western Peloponnese 1. Summary of petition The petitioner refers to a number of environmentally damaging activities conducted in the Ermioni municipality, in particular the pollution of groundwater, as a consequence of inadequate waste management, including an illegal dump and a lake of waste. The petitioner points out that the drinking water from the municipal water supply is harmful and that the inadequate treatment of waste water is one of the reasons for the serious pollution in the Bay of Argolis. He further explains that uncontrolled building activity in the local coastal and woodland areas is leading to the destruction of the natural environment and local archaeological monuments. As the responsible Greek authorities, to whom the petitioner has already appealed, have taken no action in response to this situation, the petitioner calls on the European Parliament to intervene with a view to ensuring that EU legislation on the environment is enforced in connection with the above activities. 2. Admissibility Declared admissible on 14 January 2011. Information requested from Commission under Rule 216(6). 3. Commission reply, received on 29 March 2011 Concerning the existence of an illegal dump In its ruling of 6 October 2005 (C-502/03), the Court of Justice stated that Greece had failed CM\1132164EN.docx PE462.679v08-00 EN United in diversityEN in its obligations under Articles 4, 8 and 9 of Directive 75/442/EEC1 on waste, as amended by Directive 91/156/EEC2.

Greek War of Independence (1821–1832) by Ioannis Zelepos
Greek War of Independence (1821–1832) by Ioannis Zelepos This article deals with developments leading up to, the unfolding of and the outcome of the Greek War of Independence which began in 1821, while focusing in particular on the international dimension of the conflict. Just as diaspora communities in western and central Europe who had been influenced by the French Revolution of 1789 had played a central role in the emergence of the Greek nationalist movement, the insurrection itself also quickly became an international media event throughout Europe. It was the European great powers who ultimately rescued the rebellion (which was hopelessly divided and which had actually failed militarily) through largescale intervention and who put the seal on Greek sovereignty in 1830/32. The emergence of Greece as a European project between great power politics and philhellenism had a profound effect on the further development of the country. TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.

Notes Indices Citation Nationalist Revolutionary Energy from the Late 18th Century Onward The emergence of nationalist revolutionary energy in Greek-speaking milieus from the last decade of the 18th century has been documented.1 The Greek diaspora in central and western Europe provided the central impetus in this process, reflecting to a large degree the political upheavals of the period, which had been triggered by the French Revolution (➔ Media Link #ab) of 1789.
