As the President of the International Black Sea Club (IBSC), I welcome you to the website of our Club.

The International Black Sea Club is an International Non-Governmental Organization (NGO), which was founded on the 5th of December in 1992 in Odessa (Ukraine) and today it is comprised of 27 members, which are cities and municipalities from the area of the Black Sea and the Mediterranean.

The purpose of the Club, with the actions it develops, is the strengthening and the development of the cooperation among its members on social, economic, cultural, technological and athletic matters.

Today, the Club has the status of the Observer in the Black Sea Economic Cooperation organisation as well as the Consultive status in the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations, which are given only to organisations that have received world recognition. The International Black Sea Club is a member of the International Union of Local Authorities and the European Council for Small Business.

As the Mayor of Kavala (Greece), which has been elected for the Presidency of the Club for the years 2009 - 2011, I believe in the unlimited cooperation potential among our cities to the benefit of our societies and we intend during the period of our Presidency to strengthen the already undertaken actions and develop new ones.
