The International Hellenic Association (IHA), in collaboration with the Municipality of Gavdos, the Region of Crete, the Regional Union of Municipalities of Crete, and participating municipalities, extends an open invitation to Greeks around the world to take part in the 3rd International SMART ISLANDS Conference.
📍 September 22–23, 2026
📍 Sarakiniko Stone Theatre, Gavdos, Crete
Gavdos, the southernmost point of Greece and Europe, is an island of unique historical, geographical, cultural and geopolitical significance.
It is also traditionally associated with Homer’s mythical Ogygia, the island where, according to the Odyssey, the nymph Calypso welcomed and hosted Odysseus.
The SMART ISLANDS Conference highlights the challenges and opportunities facing Greece’s remote and border islands, while promoting innovation, sustainability and digital connectivity.

A 4.500-year-old story unfolds through the streets and ancient houses revealed by archaeological excavation and 1.150 carefully selected objects. Each object offers a glimpse into the lives of the people who lived, worked and created in this remarkable part of ancient Athens.
🔎 Join the archaeologists of the Acropolis Museum as they guide you through a fascinating world that may be thousands of years away, yet feels surprisingly familiar.
