Another step toward UNESCO

This international coverage confirms the importance of the joint efforts made by all involved institutions: D.H.K.E.N., the Municipality of Nisyros, the General Secretariat for the Aegean and Island Policy, and the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens.
The article is expected to be shared by other media outlets across Europe and beyond, further enhancing Nisyros’ image on the global stage. This exposure is not merely a communication success, but a tangible recognition of the island’s geological, cultural, and scientific significance worldwide.
As President of D.H.K.E.N., I express my great satisfaction with this important development and invite all residents, professionals, and friends of Nisyros to continue working together on this dynamic path toward international recognition—with the shared goal of having Nisyros officially included in the UNESCO Global Geoparks family this September.
With faith and vision, we move forward.

Sincerely,
Evangelos Tasioulas
President of D.H.K.E.N.
Managing Authority of the Nisyros Geopark
