This session will address the question of whether multilateralism can survive and assess the effectiveness of the new emerging global governance arrangements

point for the future of European youth today.

In an effort to re-build a bridge of communication between Greek youth and the world around them, Freedom Besieged includes an unprecedented

amount of engagement from respected intellectuals, politicians, and experts from within Greece and the international community.

Carrying an overall hope-based theme, Freedom Besieged tells the inspiring stories of various Greek youth and community leaders who, without violence,

seek a prosperous future amidst the crisis.
