Ministry of Foreign Affairs and DYPA join forces for brain gain
A memorandum of cooperation was signed between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Public Employment Service (DYPA) in order to reach and inform Greeks abroad about job opportunities in Greece. Through the new cooperation agreement, Greeks living and working abroad will receive continuous and targeted information on initiatives, actions and programs related to their employment prospects in Greece, as well as on the opportunities to return to the country. This is another action designed and implemented within the framework of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ Strategic Plan for Greeks Abroad 2024 – 2027, which aims to bring Greeks abroad closer to Greece and to create conditions for their return to their homeland.
