Μια πλατφόρμα από Ελλάδα… για τον κόσμο…

Μια νέα πρωτοβουλία ανάδειξης και εξωστρεφούς προβολής του ελληνικού πολιτισμού από το E-Learning του Εθνικού και Καποδιστριακού Πανεπιστημίου Αθηνών (ΕΚΠΑ).

Ποια εικόνα έχουν οι άλλοι λαοί για την Ελλάδα και τον πολιτισμό της; Είναι ίδια με αυτή που ε

μείς μοιραζόμαστε; Πώς ξεπερνούμε στερεότυπα και το χάσμα που δημιουργούν μεταξύ μας; Μπορούμε να επικοινωνήσουμε, να έρθουμε πιο κοντά και να γνωριστούμε, γνωρίζοντας την αληθινή Ελλάδα; Μήπως μπορούμε ν’ αποτυπώσουμε την εικόνα της χώρας μας για να τη μοιραστούμε από κοινού με τον κόσμο;

Μια νέα πρωτοβουλία που υλοποιείται από το E-Learning του Πανεπιστημίου Αθηνών (ΕΚΠΑ) με τίτλο YouGoCulture μάς καλεί να… «μπούμε στην εικόνα», έστω με ένα ευρώ, και να φτιάξουμε μαζί τις εικόνες που θα μοιραστούμε για να ταξιδέψουν την Ελλάδα μακριά… μέσα από τον πολιτισμό της.

Γιατί… Πολιτισμός δεν είναι μόνο (όλα) όσα μας έκαναν περήφανους χτες! Πολιτισμός είναι και όλα όσα μας κάνουν περήφανους για αυτό που είμαστε σήμερα! Πολιτισμός είναι όλα όσα μας κάνουν Έλληνες κάθε μέρα. Γιατί Ελλάδα σημαίνει πολιτισμός… Και ο πολιτισμός είμαστε εμείς!
