ECOWEEK 2011 took place in March 28 - April 3, 2011 in Thessaloniki, northern Greece, an important port city, accessible by train from Europe, the Balkans, and Turkey. Thessaloniki, an ancient city dating back to Alexander the Great, has been home to many religions, ethnicities, languages and nationalities throughout history, traces and monuments of which can still be seen when walking through the city. ECOWEEK is very proud to hold its conference and workshops for the first time in this important historic and inspiring city. ECOWEEK also acknowledges the successful close collaboration with the City of Thessaloniki, the presence of Mayor Y.
