FTHIA IN ACTION was established in 2018, as an INFORMAL YOUTH GROUP in order to get actively involved in Volunteering and Youth in Action programmes. After the growing number of active members (over 130 at the moment), the success in organized activities and the number of Erasmus projects within 2 years, led to the transformation into ASSOCIATION Of VOLUNTEERS. It takes action in Lamia, region of Central Greece.

Main goal of the Association is the involvement in activities and discussions that have to do with important topics such as technology, environment, education, job opportunities, unemployment, economy, cultural awareness and volunteerism.

Our members, through different activities, are willing to strengthen awareness of active European citizenship, solidarity, tolerance and social inclusion. Under these principles, are connected to other Youth, Adults, Culture, Sports and Training clubs and built strong relationships with MUNICIPALITY of Lamia and Region of Central Greece, supporting the development of new civil society contacts.

FTHIA, has the financial and organizational capacity to co-fund Erasmus projects and organize many different activities, including people, regardless of age, gender or race emphasizing multiculturalism and empathy. Aims to support Youth and Adults from disadvantaged backgrounds facing economical, social, cultural, geographical situations.

FTHIA is focusing on increasing intercultural dialogue and cooperation among European Associations, organizing and sending participants in Erasmus projects, filming a network of Active European people. It is part of a broad network and organizes training courses, meetings, workshops, traineeships for students/adults in different professional areas, including the traditional values and cultural heritage. Also assists young or elderly people, youth /adult organisations and other stakeholders active in the field of Erasmus to explore and find various opportunities which are available under Erasmus+.

Takes a full role in the public debate on civil society engagement in its topics of interest and strives to influence policies in these areas. In line with forgoing values and objectives, thanks to its role as advisor for public and private bodies – well served by participation to European programmes (Erasmus+, EYF) – the cofounder established a serious network and Youth platform of ENGO partners around Europe and beyond.

The Association is dedicated to the use of AI in education. It tries to increase the awareness for science among the young as it is expected that AI oriented professionals will be highly desirable and needed in the coming years. Fthia started the mission of AI empowering amongst young people in GREECE. So far the institute has addressed young students aged 10- 19 with enquiry based, hands-on experiments through the development of their own curriculum and methodology for teaching AI hands-on courses for children. The institute also provides science weeks for schools. In the future Fthia wants to address older children with AI in education and encourage them to learn more about it. At the moment, the institute participates in two Erasmus+ projects — as AI teaching knowledge mediator to teachers from all over Europe in KA1 action programme and as partner for AI competence development in elementary schools in Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia in KA2 action programme — consistent with the focus of this project.

With an in-depth study of AI theory and practice, students are equipped with technical skills and an understanding of machine learning, big data analytics, AI in gaming and robotics, natural language processing and deep learning Students and Youth, undertake research in our laboratories and are equipped for employment in a range of industries. >> Website
