The Youth Branch of the Greek Association for Atlantic & European Cooperation was established in 1993 aiming to activate university and high-school students in Greece in the fields of expertise related to the operation of G.A.A.E.C.

We aim to educate them on the transatlantic dimension of international relations of Greece. In addition to this we promote healthy debates and the share of ideas, which can contribute to raise awareness of key issues.

The activities of GAAEC provides the Youth Branch the necessary worldwide background to work effectively in today's world. In cooperation with its international partners and local universities the Youth Branch of GAAEC managed to bring together all those students and young professionals who are interested and active in the field of international relations not just in Greece, but also on a global scale.
