What is the organization?
This congress is organized by the Athens Institute for Education and Research (ATINER), an independent global association of academics and researchers.

Since the 1980s, ATINER has been organizing small-scale, yet high-quality gatherings that provide a platform for both established names and young talent.

There are discussions on the future of international trade, the impact of migration on urban areas, and the role of international organizations in crisis management. The congress encourages cross-disciplinary thinking, where, for example, economic models are tested against socio-cultural realities in different regions.
Who is the event for?
This event is intended for scholars in the fields of political science, economics, sociology, and international relations. Additionally, it is of interest to analysts at think tanks and professionals working in international diplomacy or at NGOs. The conference offers an intimate setting that invites in-depth discussions and the exchange of innovative perspectives on the challenges of the 21st century.
