American Hellenic Educational Progressive Association  October 5, 2020 AHEPA Releases 2020 Congressional Info-Card The American Hellenic Educational Progressive Association (AHEPA), a leading association for the nation’s millions of American citizens of Greek heritage and Philhellenes, released its 2020 Congressional Info-Card for the 116th Congress on the public policy priorities of the American Hellenic community, announced Supreme President George G. Horiates.   AHEPA Congressional Info-Card for the U.S. House of Representatives for the 116th Congress AHEPA Congressional Info-Card for the U.S. Senate for the 116th Congress “This November 3, all seats for the House of Representatives are up for election and approximately one-third of Senate seats are too,” Horiates said. “We are presented with an opportunity to provide a service to the American Hellenic community and educate it about the legislative actions or initiatives taken by members of Congress on American Hellenic issues. If anything, the Info-Card may be the best indicator of how well legislators are aware of, or engaged in, our issues.” Horiates encourages the community to outreach to members of Congress to thank them if they are supportive on the issues or to inquire why not if they are disengaged. “Because the success of government depends on an engaged and educated citizenry, we are proud to provide the community with this helpful informational or educational tool,” Horiates said. “We encourage the community to utilize it and share it with family, friends and colleagues.” # # # Info-Card | U.S. House of Representatives Info-Card | U.S. Senate

Δράση του Συλλόγου Κατοίκων Ολυμπιακού Χωριού για την δίκη της ΧΑ στις 7 Οκτώβρη

 Δελτίο Τύπου:

"Στις 7 Οκτώβρη, ημέρα Τετάρτη η σύνθεση του Τριμελούς Εφετείου Κακουργημάτων θα ανακοινώσει την απόφαση του δικαστηρίου για τις επιμέρους επιθέσεις των ταγμάτων εφόδου(Φύσσας, Αιγύπτιοι ψαράδες, συνδικαλιστές του ΠΑΜΕ) όσο και συνολικά για την κατηγορία της διεύθυνσης κι ένταξης σε εγκληματική οργάνωση.

Η δίκη αυτή μάς αφορά όλες και όλους, γιατί η έκβασή της θα αποτελέσει σταθμό τόσο στα πολιτικά πράγματα του τόπου όσο και στην ελληνική κοινωνία.

Συμμετέχουμε στη συγκέντρωση που θα πραγματοποιηθεί έξω από το εφετείο (επί της οδού: Κυρίλλου Λουκάρεως) και καλούμε όποιον/α ενδιαφερόμενο/η κάτοικο θέλει να συμμετέχει να επικοινωνήσει μαζί μας.

Κατανοούμε ότι το μεταφορικό είναι ένας σοβαρός παράγοντας ώστε κάποιος/α να μη συμμετάσχει στη διαμαρτυρία και για αυτό αποφασίσαμε -τηρώντας όλα τα απαραίτητα υγειονομικά μέτρα- να νοικιάσουμε πούλμαν το οποίο θα μας μεταφέρει από το Ολυμπιακό Χωριό προς το Εφετείο και πάλι πίσω.

Δεν είναι αθώοι! “

Μελέτη - European framework on ethical aspects of artificial intelligence, robotics and related technologies - 28-09-2020
28-09-2020 12:00 AM CEST

The EU can become a global standard-setter in the area of artificial intelligence (AI) ethics. Common EU legislative action on ethical aspects of AI could boost the internal market and establish an important strategic advantage. While numerous public and private actors around the globe have produced ethical guidelines in this field, there is currently no comprehensive legal framework. The EU can profit from the absence of a competing global governance model and gain full 'first mover' advantages. Building on the EU's economic and regulatory powers, common EU legislative action has great potential to provide European industry with a competitive edge. Furthermore, EU action can facilitate the adoption of EU standards globally and ensure that the development, uptake and diffusion of AI is based on the values, principles and rights protected in the EU. Those benefits cannot be achieved by actions of individual Member States. Thus, the success and benefits of EU action are contingent on the ability of the EU to take timely, common legislative action and to back this action up with strong democratic oversight, accountability and enforcement. The analyses of this European added value assessment suggest that a common EU framework on ethics has the potential to bring the European Union €294.9 billion in additional GDP and 4.6 million additional jobs by 2030.

Λεπτομερής ανάλυση - The future of tertiary education in Europe - 28-09-2020

Λεπτομερής ανάλυση - The future of tertiary education in Europe - 28-09-2020
28-09-2020 09:53 AM CEST

This analysis focuses on six challenges facing tertiary education in the EU: the need to maintain relevance to current and future aspirations, the impact of digital and disruptive technologies, the way it collaborates with business, global and intra-EU collaboration, quality assurance, financing and barriers to inclusion. It also looks at trends in two of the largest higher education systems outside the European Higher Education Area, those in the United States and China. This provides the backdrop to discuss how the next Multiannual Financial Framework, which is currently under negotiation, will put tools at the EU's disposal to exert some influence on the future trajectory of tertiary education, as well as the European Parliament's role in these negotiations.
