Opening ceremony with cacao and ecstatic dance -DJ Samadhi
Through cacao, we open our hearts, activate our connection and create a field where truth, love and collective intention become a force for life, peace and justice. Ecstatic Dance is a free movement where you dance in whatever way feels best for you. In this dance, there is no structure or steps to follow, nor do you have to dance in a specific way. It is a safe space with a free atmosphere, a vessel of acceptance and courage that allows people of all ages and professions to express themselves freely through dance.

Consent and Boundaries with Sisyphus George, Maria Soorya Beant Tomprou, and Rosa Oikonomou.
“Yes,” “No,” and “I would like to…” are the pillars of healthy relationships, but they can often seem confusing and complicated. How do we distinguish between the desire to give and the need to take? How do we politely say “no” without feeling guilty? How do we ask for what we really want without feeling anxious?
This workshop is a safe space to explore these questions. It is neither a theoretical lecture nor therapy, but an interactive journey of self-awareness through simple and easy, non-erotic exercises involving touch (e.g., on the hand, on the back) or simple communication, with full respect for each participant’s choice to participate or not.
2:00-3:30 p.m. -Lower Hall

Anthropological-perceptions-of-gender_Alexandros
In this short presentation, we will look back in time and study the human species in relation to the social changes brought about by technological progress. Starting from the food-gathering period reaching today. We will explore how the concept of gender changes, mutates, offers new possibilities for individuals and society as a whole, but at the same time oppresses and marginalizes. The aim is to gain a more holistic image of the influence of science and technology. We will see how they behave as non neutral social agents; always influential, regulatory, shaping the perceptions of gender for society and individuals.

Kaliarda
Paola Revenioti and her film crew Paola Team Documentaries present their first feature-length documentary, Kaliarda, which explores the secret dialect used by homosexuals in Greece from the 1940s until the transition to democracy in the early 1970s. in the early 1970s. Paola came into contact with Kaliarda during the 1980s, shortly before its use disappeared. Although the initial goal was to document the use and history of kaliarda, it soon became apparent that the material highlighted the history of the gay community in Greece as a whole, outlining the gradual change in conditions and reaching the present day. During filming, themes and motifs emerged such as love, sexuality, the various hangouts of the time, and the problems faced by gay people at the time. In the documentary, we talk to academics and everyday people who tell the story of the gay community, having experienced its evolution firsthand.
