Successful Awareness-Raising Activities in Larissa during February – March

A series of important awareness-raising activities were successfully carried out in Larissa during the February–March period. Our member, Tasos Arampatzis, represented Homo Digitalis with great success by voluntarily leading several awareness and educational initiatives in the region.

In particular, in collaboration with Frosso Ktistaki — PhD holder and piano professor — they delivered an educational presentation on the theme Cybersecurity, Music, and Human Emotions. Within this context, they discussed the human factor in cybersecurity, the impact of personal data breaches, and how music can serve as a helpful tool. The event took place at Pyrgetos High School on February 24.

Additionally, at the end of March, Tasos represented Homo Digitalis in presentations to 5th and 6th grade students of two co-located primary schools in Larissa — the 15th and 43rd Primary Schools. The topic of the presentations was cyberbullying.


Read the Pocket Guide on Protecting Your Privacy During Protests

Today, Friday, February 28, marks two years since the Tempi train tragedy. Strikes and work stoppages have been organized across Greece and abroad to honor the memory of the 57 victims, demand justice, and hold those responsible accountable.

But what about your devices and personal data? How can you take steps to protect them during a protest?

Homo Digitalis, in collaboration with Software Makers, a nonprofit organization based in Heraklion, Crete, has translated and adapted the Electronic Frontier Foundation’s (EFF) Pocket Guide to Greek legal and practical realities. The guide provides essential steps to take before, during, and after a protest to help you safeguard both yourself and your data.

We stand in solidarity and offer our unwavering support!

The guide is available for download and printing here.

We Gave the Most Interesting Interview to the Students of the Nikaias Primary School in Larissa for Data Protection Day

One of the most delightful and wonderful ways we celebrated World Data Protection Day was the online interview given by Lamprini Giftokosta from our team to the fifth-grade class of Nikaias Primary School in Larissa on January 28th! The questions were MANY!!!… ranging from what personal data means, what we are celebrating today, to whether artificial intelligence has a mind, if it knows everything, or if it makes mistakes.

The interview took place as part of a school competition in which the young journalists are participating. We eagerly await the article they will publish and wish them the best of luck!!!

We sincerely thank the educator Vili Karayiorgou and the Nikaias Primary School in Larissa for the flawless cooperation in this initiative.
