The Greek Students’ Association (GSA) is a student run group at the University of Toronto (St. George Campus) with mission to bring students of Hellenic descent together as often as possible to celebrate their heritage and share in the experience of university life. The GSA acts as a social network by taking part and organizing many events throughout the school year.
SAE Canada Youth Network’s main goal is to promote Hellenism by bringing together Canadians of Hellenic descent and strengthening the link between the next generation of Greek-Canadians and Greece while preserving and promoting Greek language and culture in coordination with local Greek-Canadian youth organizations.

This Conference’s objective is to coordinate substantiated positions of Youth Diaspora organizations operating in Canada, whose work represent the best guarantee for the future of the Greek Diaspora. The aim of the Conference is also, to invite and reunite young people of Hellenic descent in order to meet and discuss issues of interest to them, as well as to discuss issues relating to the promotion of Greek Culture abroad, the teaching of the Greek language and the advancement of Hellenic national causes around the world.
During the conference youths will have the unique opportunity to exchange ideas and experiences as well as to initiate common, collective action.
