This competition’s main goal is to encourage self-expression among young people, as well as to enhance their study of Literature and Language in Secondary Education. For this reason, the Competition is fully supported by the Hellenic Ministry of Education.
“Marilena Laskaridis” Literary Competition
The Foundation established the Short Story Literary Competition in memory of Marilena Laskaridis for students of Secondary Education of all Greek schools abroad and of the Greek Language Departments in 2019 and is supported by the the Hellenic Ministry of Education.
The competition’s aim is not only to encourage the expression, the writing skills and in general the artistic sensitivity of the teenagers, but also to create a bridge of communication with the students of the Greek schools abroad.
