Community media are flourishing worldwide because of their diversity and fundamental desire to serve the interests of the people they serve.

Its mission is to act as a forum where Academics and Researchers from all over the world can meet in Athens, in order to exchange ideas on their research, and to discuss future developments in their disciplines.

The organizing and hosting of International Conferences and Symposiums <http://www.atiner.gr/Conferences.htm>, the carrying out of Research, and the production of Publications are the basic activities of ATINER. Since 1995, ATINER has organized more than 400 International Conferences and other events, and has published close to 200 books <http://www.atiner.gr/Publications.htm>. In 2012, the Association launched a series of conference paper publications (click here <http://www.atiner.gr/papers.htm>), and at the beginning of 2014, it introduced its own series of Journals (click here <http://www.athensjournals.gr/>).

Academically, the Association is organized into seven Research Divisions <http://www.atiner.gr/RESEARCH-DIVISIONS.htm> and fourty Research Units <http://www.atiner.gr/RESEARCH-DIVISIONS.htm>.
