Deputy Foreign Minister George Kotsiras and the head of the Public Employment Service (DYPA), Spiros Protopsaltis, signed a memorandum of cooperation aimed at engaging the Greek diaspora on Wednesday.
According to an announcement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the memorandum seeks to inform Greeks living abroad about job opportunities in Greece.
It also aims to design initiatives and incentives – such as employment opportunities, entrepreneurship and training programs – to encourage their return to the Greek labor market.
The collaboration will involve the exchange of information and updates on national and European programs related to employment for Greeks abroad who wish to return and integrate into the Greek workforce. Additionally, the partnership includes organizing informational seminars and events, particularly in countries with significant emigration during the economic crisis.
“Through our collaboration with the Public Employment Service, we are taking another step toward reversing the brain drain. We aim to provide Greeks living and working abroad with targeted information about opportunities and incentives for their return,” Kotsiras stated.
