1 April 2020 PRESS RELEASE DODONI’s ‘Taste of Good’ programme supports local community and the ‘Stay Home’ campaign Weekly distribution of company products to high-risk and economically vulnerable groups in Epirus DODONI, the leading dairy industry in Greece, stands with vulnerable groups in the local Epirus community at this difficult time for Greece and joins the effort to contain the spread of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) by supporting the “Stay Home” message with action. Specifically, aiming to provide essential assistance where truly needed and to protect public health, DODONI has teamed up with the Region of Epirus, the municipalities of Ioannina and Arta and the metropolitan churches of Ioannina and Arta to provide baskets of dairy products weekly to hundreds of at-risk and economically vulnerable groups in the area as a way of allowing them to “Stay Home”, stay healthy and stay safe. The goal of the initiative is to help senior citizens to stay home and restrict their movements even further in order to protect themselves and their loved ones. DODONI’s social undertaking begins Thursday, 2 April 2020, and initially will last one month. It may be extended to assist fellow citizens who have greater need at this time. Highly aware of the difficult time everyone is experiencing, DODONI has already donated a large quantity of medical supplies to the University Hospital of Ioannina as part of the company’s “Taste of Good” programme to provide support for the critically important work being performed by medical and nursing personnel. Mr Michalis Panagiotakis, Deputy CEO at the DODONI dairy industry, said: “The DODONI family consistently supports our local community and is always here to help our fellow citizens. During these difficult times, when our country and all of Greek society is struggling, practical contribution and support for those who need us is the only responsible option for safeguarding health, well-being and our very future.” With a history of more than 50 years, DODONI is an integral part of Epirus and stands strong at the side of the local community, bringing the Taste of Good to thousands of households daily and making human health and safety a top priority. .

This article studies how the commuting phenomenon is affected by changes in transport infrastructures and, in particular, after the construction of the Ionian Motorway that suggests one of the biggest infrastructure-works of the modern history at the West Greece and Epirus. A multi-regressive methodological framework is constructed for the analysis of commuting flows, applying three different versions of linear and generalized linear regression models, where the significant predictor variables elected per model are compared and found to converge into a single Newtonian gravity model. Finally, this paper estimates and illustrates the changes of the Ionian Motorway’s construction, based on the commuting model that

On the remote northwest corner of Greece, you will discover the rarely visited quaint lakeside town of Ioannina and the evocative ancient site of Dodoni. In Albania, you will walk through the streets of an ancient city that, according to legend, was founded by settlers from Troy, while in Montenegro, you’ll wander the labyrinth of streets and lanes and town squares of Kotor, one of the most enchanting towns in all of Europe.

As your guide to the ancient cultures whose legacies you will encounter will be Bowdoin Professor James Higginbotham, Associate Professor of Classical Archaeology and Curator for the Ancient Collection, Bowdoin College Museum of Art.
