Cyprus and Greece have engaged in several initiatives to strengthen bilateral ties across tourism, education, and cultural heritage.

Initially, the Nicosia regional tourism board launched a promotional campaign in Athens under the slogan ‘Nicosia: Greece, we are waiting for you’. The effort sought to increase visitor flows by highlighting the capital’s religious, cultural, and business attractions, emphasizing the existing economic and political links between the two nations.

Following these promotional efforts, the governments and churches of both countries signed a Memorandum of Cooperation focused on education and history. This agreement aims to promote the history and cultural contributions of Cypriot Hellenism through educator training, student competitions, and educational visits. The memorandum also includes plans to develop a shared digital platform to host historical materials, including content regarding the Turkish invasion and occupation of Cyprus.
