We need to create opportunities for growth and job creation in Europe.” The roadmap for the implementation of the Greek-German Bilateral Action Plan consists of the following pillars: 1) Political cooperation: consultations between the Ministries of Foreign Affairs, cooperation between diplomatic academies, dialogue on migration2) Economic and technological cooperation: promotion of exports, cooperation in the sectors of energy, tourism3) Scientific, cultural and educational cooperation: research cooperation, professional training, cultural cooperation4) Cooperation on the social level: Greek-German Youth Office Meetings are scheduled to be held in the coming months – in Athens and Berlin – to monitor the implementation of the roadmap.
