The goal of the Symposium is to deepen the effects of international relations on the status of sports autonomy. Is this concept still relevant or do international events heavily influence sports (and sports competitions)? If we believe that sport can be an effective tool for promoting peace and democratic coexistence (EU White paper on sport), considering, instead, the strong conditioning to which it is subjected, what spaces of real autonomy it has to carry out this important function? This is the question!

These are big questions for discussion today! The International Statutory Charter of Sports as the basis of International Sports Law is also a question.

University of Athens

The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, which was inaugurated on May 3, 1837, was initially housed in a renovated Ottoman building on the northeastern side of the Acropolis. This building has since been restored and now functions as the University Museum. Originally named the "Othonian University," after Otto, the first king of Greece, it consisted of four academic departments and 52 students. As the first university of the newly established Greek state, as well as of the broader Balkan and Mediterranean region, it assumed an important socio-historical role, which was pivotal in the development of specific forms of knowledge and culture within the country.
