  • The Skoufas Association: A Pillar of Cultural Heritage and Innovation in Arta

    Founded in 1896, the Skoufas Association has long been a cornerstone of cultural and intellectual life in Arta and the broader Epirus region of Greece. For over a century, this venerable institution has been dedicated to preserving and promoting the rich heritage of the area, fostering a deep sense of identity and unity among its residents. In a recent interview, Mrs. Spyridoula Chouliara, a member of the board of directors, offered an insightful look into the association’s history, its ongoing educational initiatives, and its forward-thinking efforts in digitizing and modernizing its extensive collections.

    Sport Urbanism: A New Paradigm for Urban Regeneration and Sustainable, Beautiful Cities for All

    Sport urbanism is emerging as a powerful concept in the transformation of our cities. This approach advocates for integrating sports into urban design as a green, inclusive solution that enhances the beauty and functionality of public spaces. Sport-based solutions doesn't just make cities more attractive; they also turn public areas into vibrant hubs that promote well-being, public health, and environmental sustainability. By placing sports at the heart of urban regeneration, we can create spaces that are aesthetically pleasing and serve as collective spaces for communities, fostering social connections and improving the quality of life for all residents.
