"This report analyses Greek legislation in a number of sectors and identifies about 350 legal provisions which could be removed or amended to lift regulatory barriers to competition. The work undertaken in the project has involved the review of over 1 200 pieces of legislation in these sectors of the economy, using the OECD Competition Assessment Toolkit. The analysis of the legislation and of the Greek sectors has been complemented by research into international experience and consultation with stakeholders from the public and private sectors" Read more and read on line for free.

About Research and data to make progress against the world’s largest problems. Based at Oxford Martin Programme on Global Development

(Wikipedia) "Our World in Data (OWID) is a scientific online publication that focuses on large global problems such as poverty, disease, hunger, climate change, war, existential risks, and inequality.  It is a project of the Global Change Data Lab, a registered charity in England and Wales, and was founded by Max Roser, a social historian and development economist. The research team is based at the University of Oxford."

(Statens Serum Institute, DK.) "Our mission is to reinforce the EU's preparedness to respond to potential risk of all hazards by a continued operation of the EuroMOMO network which ensures quality checked, standardised weekly mortality monitoring." Greece is EuroMOMO networks' partner.

(Excerpt of history)"The overall objective of the original European Mortality Monitoring Project was to design a routine public health mortality monitoring system aimed at detecting and measuring, on a real-time basis, excess number of deaths related to influenza and other possible public health threats across participating European Countries. This objective was originally targeted in a (E.C.) DG Sanco supported project that ran from 2008-2011."

 "A private, non-profit, public-benefit research organisation. It was established in 1975 with the dual purpose of promoting research on current problems and prospects of the Greek economy and its sectors and of generating reliable information, analysis and proposals for action that are non produced elsewhere and can thus be of high value to policy makers in the context of economic policy making." 
"In that sense, IOBE holds a unique position in Greek society: it is the only politically independent, non-partisan body dealing with major issues of the economy, and it aspires to being pro-active, that is, it seeks to identify, at an early stage, economic issues that can become crucial in the future and to propose timely solutions for these."

Revue de sciences sociales et politiques consacrée à l’étude de la région allant de l’Europe du Sud à l’Asie centrale. La revue a arrêté sa publication avec le numéro 39-40 | 2006. La revue Anatoli lui fait suite. ||  A social and political sciences journal focusing on an area between southern Europe and Central Asia. The journal ceased its publication with issue No. 39-40 | 2006.

Anatoli est une publication annuelle consacrée à l’étude pluridisciplinaire de l’espace qui s’étend de l’Adriatique à la Caspienne. Elle s’intéresse aux cultures - grecque, latine, slave, turque, persane, géorgienne, arménienne, juive, etc. - qui l’ont habité et façonné. Les territoires de cet espace, aujourd’hui fragmenté, furent jadis unifiés, au moins partiellement, par les pouvoirs impériaux, dont le dernier fut l’empire ottoman. Ils en gardent bien des traits communs, souvent sous forme latente. L’importance de cet espace pour l’Union européenne est une évidence. || Anatoli is an annual publication devoted to the interdisciplinary study of the space between the Adriatic and Caspian seas. It focused on Greek, Latin, Slavish, Turkish, Persian, Georgian, Armenian, Jewish cultures... which inhabited and shaped it. To-day, the territories of these regions are fragmented but in the past they were unified by imperial powers, the Ottoman empire being the last one. They preserved numerous common features. The importance of the space for the European Union is obvious.
