“MEETING THE NEEDS OF YOUNG GREEK AMERICANS: OPPORTUNITIES AND PERSPECTIVES”

“November 16-18, 2007, Georgetown University, Washington, DC
WEEKEND HIGHLIGHTS:

Concert by renowned Greek singer, Elly Paspala, at National Geographic

Film: “The Journey: The Greek American Dream” at American Film Institute
The descendants of Greek immigrants who generations ago braved a new world in search of opportunity are today successful and productive Americans, boasting of successes in all areas of human activity, having inherited strong values and an appreciation for education.

And as the world evolves, so do the needs, aspirations and priorities of the new generations of Greek Americans, as they search new ways of nurturing their sense of cultural identity, in a way relevant to them.

We can best pay tribute to those pioneering Greek Americans by promoting the evolution of Greek Americans institutions to meet their needs of the times and remain relevant.

Towards this result, we invite Greek American youth to engage in a dialogue with the leadership of G/A institutions, with other Americans of Greek descent; with our compatriots in Greece; to engage ourselves in a kind of “soul searching”.
