GREECE
Official Name: Hellenic Republic GEOGRAPHY Area: 131,957 sq. km. (51,146 sq. mi.) including islands. Cities: Capital-(greater) Athens (4 million). Other cities: Thessalonica (705,000), Patras (154,600), Heraklion (111,000). Terrain: Largely mountainous interior, with coastal plains; many islands. Climate: Temperate. PEOPLE Nationality: Noun and adjective-Greek(s). Population: 10.4 million (1991 est.). Ethnic groups: Greek 98%, other 2%. Religions: Greek Orthodox 97%, Muslim 2%, Other 1%. Language: Greek. Education: Years compulsory-9. Literacy: men 97%, women 92%. Health (1994): Infant mortality rate: 9.8/1000. Life expectancy: men 72 years, women 75 years. Work force (1988): Agriculture: 29%. Industry: 27%. Services: 43%. In ancient times Greece was a mosaic of ethnically similar small city-states. During the migrations and invasions of the Byzantine and Ottoman periods (4th-19th centuries A.D.), Greece's ethnic composition lost its homogeneity. Since independence (1827) and the exchange of populations with Turkey in 1923, however, Greece has re-forged a national identity whose roots date back to the 13th century BC. Greece's pride in these Hellenic roots is reflected in its official name, Hellas or the Hellenic Republic; the name "Greece" derives from the Latin name. Greek society retains its traditional Mediterranean values of family, education, and personal honor (philotimon), despite the changes wrought by urbanization and industrialization. From earliest times, Greeks have migrated across the country and across the Mediterranean, eventually creating Greek-speaking communities all over the globe. Emigration has been on such a scale that, by one count, there are more than 3 million people of Greek heritage into United States alone. Over the past two decades, however, migration within Greece from rural to urban centers ahs been more extensive than emigration abroad. The 1961 census showed an urban population of 43% compared to a rural and semi urban population of 57%. By 1971, the urban population had grown to 53% and by 1981 to 58%. About one-third of Greece's total population lives in the greater Athens area.

From jet lag cures to hotel recommendations, ferry schedules, phrase dictionaries and island synopses, Matt's got a Herculean grip on Greece. Atevo Travel:Destination Athens Atevo, that online global travel facilitator, brings you its own Greek guide to Athens proper. The detailed (and printable) city map offers directional perspective, while the guides to nightlife, sights, business, restaurants, and the arts covers the rest. Lonely Planet World Guide Lonely Planet provides the usual basics. We suggest grabbing a better map than the one provided, as Athens can be a bit difficult to navigate. Also be sure to check out “Off The Beaten Path” for those rare Athenian sites that are overlooked by many scholars and tourists.

Plastic - Visual Arts Private Galleries As far as Visual-Plastic Arts are concerned, the private sector shows greater mobility than its public counterpart in Greece. In just a few years private galleries will have existed in Greece for over a century, each having made its own contribution to Art. Private Galleries in Greece do not only promote Art, but also contribute to art education of the public. Each year the Pan-Hellenic Association of Private Art Galleries organizes the “Art Athina” Meeting of Contemporary Art with the participation of private gallery owners from Greece and abroad. A satellite event to “Art Athina” is an exhibition devoted to artists from other countries (e.g. French Art, Art of Northern Europe, etc.)
    The Cultural Olympiad The Cultural Olympiad has a particular provision for Visual Arts, with Art in general being interpreted “…as the place to look for cultural relations between peoples through historic time by picking up the thread from Greek culture and winding up the reel of history and Art to nations around the world. Art is also envisaged as the locus for investigating contemporary practices and as a point of reference in a effort to meet the demands of post-modern society in general”. The Visual Arts programme item for the Cultural Olympiad includes Significant Thematic Exhibitions with the aim to disseminate the messages of the Cultural Olympiad throughout the world. Some of these Exhibitions are the following:

    • There are approximately 127,000 Greeks in Australia, most of who migrated in the post-war period. There have been few recent arrivals. There are 7733 Cypriots in NSW
    Language / Communication
    • Language: - Greek Those who speak English may be intimidated by sophisticated English or medical jargon but this depends on their education Older migrants may not be literate and may be intimidated by medical jargon / technical language, though they may be reluctant to admit that they do not understand the health professional. Expressive communication style - physical contact is both natural and normal but is generally restricted to the patient's family / community. Elders have a high status and should be treated with respect. Confidentiality is an important concern
    Interpreters
    • It may be important to consider the gender of the interpreter
    Religion
    • Predominately Greek Orthodox
    Customs / Social structure
    • Patriarchal (under challenge from within the community) Family relationships and honour are extremely important. It may be important to communicate with the family (particularly for older migrants), as they are likely to be essential to any treatment program.
