Eleni Chatzara

Eleni Chatzara is a graduate of the Department of Physical Education and Sport Science at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUA). Her work bridges education, sports, and innovation — using physical activity as a powerful tool for inclusion, emotional growth, and well-being. She has worked as a gymnastics instructor and camp leader in several educational programs and institutions, including the Hellenic-German Education and the Stavros Niarchos Foundation’s “Field of Life.” Eleni has represented Greece in multiple Erasmus+ initiatives across Europe and has presented research at international conferences on topics such as game-based learning, wearable technology, and the role of artificial intelligence in education. A recipient of the FIEPS Young Scholar Award 2024, Eleni is driven by the belief that movement can shape not only healthy bodies but also empathetic minds — inspiring the next generation to grow stronger, smarter, and more connected.
