All events and programmes

WHEN Career Fair returns for the 4th consecutive year on Saturday, January 24th, at the Technopolis City of Athens, so that every woman achieves her professional goals. Have you finished your studies and are now looking for your first job?
Do you want to advance in your field but haven’t found the way yet?
Have you been out of the job market for several years and don’t know how to make a fresh start?

Paraphrasing the well-known title by Raymond Carver (What we mean when we talk about love), writer Amanda Michalopoulou will take us on a headlong journey through the vast territories of the novel: ascents and descents of plot, lakes of condensed meaning, dried-up swamps of inspiration, and stormy seas where heroes and heroines swim-or simply float. Wear comfortable clothes where you can hide overflowing ideas, and bring plenty of questions.

The new cycle of the programme “School of No Bias”, called “What do the media and advertising really say about gender roles?”, aims to strengthen students’ media literacy, enhance educators’ skills so they can impart this knowledge to children, and raise awareness among media professionals about the perpetuation of gender stereotypes in media content.

What is a short story, what is it not, and how much does the definition really matter? Starting from both classic and unconventional examples, and through hands-on exercises, we will explore the architecture of a short story and examine how it can be blown apart, while keeping its core intact.
