Responsibilities

I have a bachelor degree in Physics science from Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and a Master degree in Bioeconomy, Circular Economy and Sustainable Development at University of Piraeus. I work in Kalamata city, in a family-owned business called “KLIMIS”  which has been implementing circular bioeconomy for more than 30 years. I am also a member of the strategic planning team and coordinator of the circular economy and waste management axis of the Municipality of Kalamata for the “Mission”, as Kalamata is one of the selected cities for the EU “Mission: 100 Climate Neutral and Smart European cities by 2030”. I will try to raise awareness and educate citizens, especially the children who will be the citizens of the future, in sustainable ways of living. Sustainability for me is a one way road!
