Greek Deputy Foreign Minister highlights efforts to counter brain drain

Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister Georgios Kotsiras spoke about improving Greece’s image abroad and the ministry’s actions to highlight opportunities in Greece to the youth of the diaspora, at the conference “Demographics 2024-National Priority” on Thursday, ANA reports.

Kotsiras called the phenomenon of brain drain a very serious and multidimensional national issue that Greece now has the opportunity to curb, as it enters a period of stability, outward orientation, economic growth, meritocracy in the public sector, improvement in the administration of justice and digitization of the state. 

Speaking at the Acropolis Museum conference, Kotsiras particularly mentioned the cooperation between Greek authorities abroad, the Public Employment Service (DYPA), and civil society organizations to promote job opportunities in Greece to the youth of the diaspora. He also made special mention of the Cooperation Protocol between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and “Study in Greece” to promote Greek universities abroad and their connection with the labor market.
