Following her participation as member of the Advisory Board of Extending EU Citizenship, Mrs. Christina Planas, Representative of the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) in Cyprus, asked Elia Petridou and Yiannis Laouris, members of Future Worlds Center (FWC) Board of Directors for FWC to assume the role of UNHCR's Implementing Organization in Cyprus.
