Personalities of the city's public life, official representatives of institutions, distinguished personalities from the business, journalistic, sports and artistic world, academics and scientists in the field of health, speak about the need for vigilance and action on the issue of violence against women at the event organized by the "Act of Love" Organization in cooperation with the Historical Military Vehicles Association - SISO. The event was presented by the journalist Christina Kanataki who addressed a message of Solidarity to every woman along with the beloved presenter Fay Skorda, the Deputy Head of the Metropolitan Unit of Thessaloniki Voula Patoulidou, the Deputy Head of Social Solidarity and Health of Central Macedonia Melina Maria Dermendzopoulou and the Deputy Head of Digital Governance Angelos Haristeas.
On this unique day, the opportunity was given to start a dialogue in order to take a position for the future of women with constant vigilance and action. The beginning was made with the valuable digital tool created by our Organization, in order to contribute decisively to the elimination of the phenomenon.
In the near future, the OLGA application will be available for the first time in Greece, enabling women, victims of violence, to communicate in real time and through text messages with competent staff of psychologists and social workers of private and state structures.
Stay tuned.
