Mr. Kostis Efstathiou, member of the Cypriot delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE), participated yesterday in a meeting of the Subcommittee on Culture, Diversity and Cultural Heritage, co-organised by the PACE and the Greek Parliament, in ancient Olympia.
In the context of the session, Mr Efstathiou presented the preliminary conclusions and positions of the Subcommittee on the proposal of the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe for the adoption of a roadmap for the protection of the rights of vulnerable groups and the European citizen in general, in times of pandemic.
Mr. Efstathiou, in his capacity as CSCE Rapporteur on the impact of the pandemic on the education and culture sectors, will submit a comprehensive recommendation to the relevant Committee at the next session of the Assembly, next April, regarding the timely adoption of measures to better protect the education and culture sectors and their respective institutions, particularly in times of crisis, so that they continue to act as antidotes to the various challenges facing our modern societies.
