Dr Angela Evangelinou-Yiannakis, one of the participants in our Conference on Lemnos, has written an article on the Conference for the local Western Australian Greek Community newsletter and the Archdiocesian paper Vima. Angela is an Honorary Research Fellow, University of Western Australia and the Principal at Immaculate Heart College, Western Australia

One of Angela's significant contributions to the Conference was in stressing the importance of involving Australian and Lemnian school communities in furthering awareness of Lemnos' link to Anzac and Gallipoli, and possibly providing forums for them to connect and share perspectives on-line.

Thanks to Angela for her active participation in the Conference and her publicizing of the inaugural Conference in Western Australia.Well done.
