First of all, I would like to express my warm congratulations to the Culture, Education, Sports, Science and Social Welfare body of the Church of Cyprus, the initiators and creators of this great initiative, and to welcome the conclusion of the Memorandum of Understanding that we have the honour to sign, together with the Honourable Minister of Education, Sports and Youth, Mrs. Athena Michaelidou, to sign before you today.

The Memorandum for the Development of Educational, Cultural, Scientific and Research Collaborations and Actions will create the necessary interaction that the stakeholders have set as a goal.

As the Authority responsible for the formulation, coordination and implementation of the national research and innovation policy and strategy, the general supervision of the operation of the national research and innovation governance system and the promotion of start-up and digital entrepreneurship, as well as for the formulation and implementation of a national digital policy and strategy, we will act as beneficially as possible in the areas we will be invited to participate in the framework of the actions of this Memorandum.

I firmly believe that as the Deputy Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digital Policy we have the potential to make a positive contribution to all sectors of society, promoting the quality of people's lives and creating a condition of horizontal access of citizens to the state.

By working closely and closely with the Ministry of Education, we can operate effectively and bring to society the results we want.

At the same time, through innovation, we can include people from a wide social spectrum and motivate them to interact and integrate smoothly into society. Research and innovation may be a key part of our State Department and our ecosystem, but they also remain a key pillar for our education, our academic community and our culture.

In countries where research and innovation flourish, education flourishes, and where education flourishes, culture and social cohesion flourish. They are interconnected.

Technology and research, with the right tools to exploit them, can be a key driver of development for the state. We therefore declare ourselves present and co-sponsors of this important initiative of the Church, in which the non-governmental organisations KENTHEA and Interstellar Science, Education and Cultural Institute are also participating.

Thank you very much.
