The Center

The Center for the Study of Hellenic Language and Culture (HeLaS) for more than two decades has been developing educational and research activities with main focus on the love of the Greek language and Greek culture, the cross-cultural and multicultural contact and interaction of young people from all over the world with a vision of peace and friendship between people.

Nowdays HeLaS is a recognized center that works towards the internationalization of education with criteria for the development of human resources - students, teachers, researchers - and the assurance of academic quality in studies and international cooperation. Our effort for an internationally prestigious and constantly upgraded language education and training with focus on the Greek language and Greek culture is inspired by our vision for the spread of Modern Greek as a foreign language and the promotion of the timeless values of Greek culture.
