  • the function of International Institutions such as the European Union, NATO, United Nations, etc.

What is “Kernels of Our Future”?

“Kernels of Our Future” is an international educational program for young potential leaders, established in 2004, following the successful experience of similar academic programs targeted at University students. The program aims to endow the participants with unparalleled foundations to take them ahead in today's global setting and equip them with skills which can be more than useful in many contexts of their lives. 

“Kernels of Our Future” can do what no formal education can.

It can equip the next generation with the tools to become the leaders of tomorrow. It can provide unparalleled foundations to take them ahead in today’s global setting and equip them with skills that can be extremely useful in many other contexts in their lives as well. Investing in education has many benefits, as

  • it builds the higher-level flexible skills needed to compete in today's global, knowledge-driven markets,
  • it enables people to reason, communicate and make informed choices,
  • it increases individual productivity, earnings and quality of life,
  • it is fundamental for the development of democratic societies and crucial for creating, applying and spreading knowledge.

The program is designed for continuous interactive entertaining educational work.


The participants interrelate in class and in sports, exchange invaluable social and cultural information through their respective cultural identity, visit sites of Crete, organize their “Country presentation” and discover their common legacy through the Historical Heritage Workshop.
