About

Ellinogermaniki Agogi (EA) is a private educational organisation comprising of ca. 2.500 students. Established in 1995, the Research and Development Department of EA provides the test bed for research applications for the design, development and implementation of research activities in education. The R&D Department acts therefore as an interface between the pedagogical research, the technological innovation and the community. We apply whole-institutional and the living labs approach engaging multiple stakeholders on topics such as healthy & sustainable food systems, NBS, climate change, bioeconomy and onehealth (WEFE nexus). We have experience with citizen science, citizen participation & empowerment in developing transformative innovation policies (combination of top-down & bottom -up approaches). We are working on connecting urban with rural communities & applying inclusive processes.
