Our guest today is a parent of our school, an attorney who handles cases of domestic violence against minors, persons with special needs, victims of trafficking, refugees, and abused and neglected women and children. Elena Glegle is working with children sheltered in several governmental and non-governmental organizations, representing them in court, working with psychologists and social service teams, as well as with the children themselves. She’s been involved in drafting new legislation about the status of refugees and the new legislation about foreign citizens in Greece. Elena Glegle was nominated in 2005 for the Transparency International Integrity Awards and the Yale Worlds Fellows Program in 2006.
Today, we are also joined by Lydia Skampavia, our Alumni Engagement and Development Officer, who introduced us to Elena Glegle, saying that what she has to say is mind-changing and eye-opening.
