Lydia Chatziiakovou, co-director of ArtBOX, is David Wisner's guest in this episode of "This Day and Age." Ms Chatziiakovou shares her impressions on how her fellow Greeks are coping with the outbreak of the coronavirus and the lockdown decreed by the Greek government. She describes the work she does with ArtBOX, and provides details on the Common Lab Project, a social innovation toolkit for communities in crisis, to launch in late April.

About "This Day and Age"

The purpose of this series of interviews is to talk informally, remotely, about what to expect after Covid-19 subsides. The day after, so to speak. The program will serve to highlight in English the thinking of Greek colleagues on a subject which is just now beginning to see the light of day in select circles. Invited guests will be welcome to reflect on how their training may have equipped them to think in post-virus terms, share what they are reading on the subject, and draw attention to some of the inspiring efforts Hellenes are making to help their fellow citizens cope with the lockdown.

David Wisner is Professor of International Relations at ACT -- the American College of Thessaloniki and Executive Director of the Dukakis Center.
