Profile

The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUoA) and the E-learning Programme of its Continuing Education Center address the international public through the universal language of culture.
Perceived as an inherent part of their mission, they have set out an extrovert effort to introduce fascinating facets of Greece to the world.
And this, by deploying the distinguishable and longstanding features of its cultural heritage, coupled with its contemporary identity shaped in the fields of Research and Education.

Academia and Researchers
The University of Athens (UoA) is taking full advantage of its competitive edge, i.e. its academia and researchers and their profound knowledge in a broad range of subjects, and has incorporated this task within its effort to consistently undertake activities beyond those exclusively dedicated to Education and Research, thus meeting one of the accountability pillars of the “European University”, the one referring to its contribution to the community and the society.
Within this context, actions of a broader scientific and social character are constantly planned towards a systematically established direction, rendering UoA an inseparable and vivid part of the Greek society, with presence in all facets of the social processes, both in Greece and internationally.
Technology
By utilizing the capacity of the digital technology applications, an innovative experience of travelling, which in this particular context could be coined "e-travelling", aspires to eradicate distances through either an exclusive, online educational tour or an actual, comprehensive touristic visit.
YouGoCulture focuses both on the past and the present of extraordinary destinations, by embarking on an interactive and exciting digital journey. It extends an invitation to internet users worldwide, either experienced or future ones, and to potential visitors who are on a quest for substantial contact with culture and the evolutions of mankind.
Especially, to experienced travellers for whom a skin deep and "mainstream" relationship with a destination and the culture of its people does not suffice and who feel the need to know it on a deeper level by getting acquainted with all its aspects prior to their visit, after it, or without actually visiting it at all.
