The Panhellenic Confederation of Roma (ELLAN PASSE) has undergone a significant leadership change with the election of young Roma scientist Panagiotis Charitos as president, marking a new era for the community’s institutional representation.

Charitos aims to enhance collaboration among federations and communities across Greece, focusing on modern representation and addressing key issues such as access to higher education.

The new leadership has outlined six strategic pillars, including equal opportunities in education and employment, combating social exclusion, and fostering cooperation with state and local authorities.
