An EU budget is not just numbers. It decides whether cities can build homes, protect public services and deliver the green transition. @Prountzos, @mavichina & @jmgermain: Europe’s next budget must work with regions, not around them #DemocracyAtItsRoots

Ιστορική απόφαση για μνημείο τιμής στις γυναίκες που βίωσαν βία 🔹Εξαιρετική πρωτοβουλία αναγνώρισης και τιμής στις γυναίκες θύματα του πολέμου του 1974 ,που έζησαν και ζούν τη προσωπική τους τραγωδία στη σιωπή #σεβασμός 🙏🏻 Η Πρόεδρος του Ιδρύματος «Ζωή κατά της Εμπόλεμης Βίας», Νατάσσα Φρειδερίκου, είπε ότι «από την πρώτη στιγμή της ίδρυσής του, το Ίδρυμα «Ζωή» κατά της Ένοπλης Βίας έθεσε ως προτεραιότητα τη δημιουργία ενός μνημείου αφιερωμένου στις γυναίκες και τα κορίτσια που υπέστησαν σεξουαλική βία στην Κύπρο κατά το 1974, αλλά και διεθνώς. «Όχι για να αναπαράγουμε τον πόνο, όχι για να παγιδεύσουμε τις γυναίκες στην ταυτότητα του θύματος, αλλά για να δηλώσουμε δημόσια ότι αυτές οι γυναίκες ανήκουν στην ιστορία. Ότι αξίζουν μνήμη, ότι αξίζουν αναγνώριση, ότι αξίζουν τιμή», τόνισε. @natassafred dialogos.com.cy/istoriki-apo…

Βαθιά συγκινημένος και πραγματικά ευγνώμων. Ευχαριστώ το Γ’ Δημοτικό Σχολείο Καϊμακλίου για αυτή τη μεγάλη τιμή του να δοθεί το όνομά μου σε πτέρυγα του σχολείου όπου ως μικρός μαθητής ξεκίνησε το δικό μου ταξίδι. Ευχαριστώ τον Δήμαρχο Λευκωσίας, Χαράλαμπο Προύντζο, την Julie Davis, Πρέσβειρα των ΗΠΑ, και τόσους υπέροχους φίλους και προσκεκλημένους που μοιράστηκαν αυτή την στιγμή, αλλά κυρίως τα παιδιά. __ Deeply moved and truly grateful. I sincerely thank Third Public Primary School of Kaimakli for the tremendous honor of naming a wing of the school after me — the very school where, as a young student, my own journey began. My heartfelt thanks also go to the Mayor of Nicosia, Charalambos Prountzos, to Julie Davis, and to the many wonderful friends and guests who shared this special moment — but above all, the children. @Prountzos @AngelaPanayiot1 @YianisCharity @USEmbassyCyprus #Cyprus #School #Charity #Honour

Thank you to the @eucopresident for hosting us and for devoting significant time on housing. Our Mayors for Housing initiative is helping EU institutions to push forward with a comprehensive housing policy and legislation that will benefit EU citizens and our cities. Nicosia is proud to be participating in this initiative. We have a big responsibility towards current and future generations to ensure housing is addressed as a fundamental human right and as a key tool to enhance EU competitiveness.
It was a great pleasure to welcome the coalition of Mayors for Housing – a pan-European, cross-party alliance representing cities and towns from all corners of Europe – to Brussels for a second exchange of views. Housing affordability and accessibility is one of the most pressing, concrete issues for millions of Europeans. Solving it requires action at all levels.
