Building Communication Infrastructure to Support Health in Urban Communities in Greece in the Aftermath of the Economic Crisis

Co-PIs: Matthew Matsaganis, Maria Petraki
This community-engaged research project and intervention aims to strengthen communication ties among local stakeholders—primarily between residents, on one hand, and leadership and staff of local health and other social services, on the other—and generate a blueprint for how to improve the communication infrastructure of an urban community. The study is unfolding in the Municipality of Egaleo, in the metropolitan region of Athens, Greece, in partnership with the city and the Greek National Center of Social Research (EKKE, in Greek).
