In view of the upcoming start
of the new academic year 2021-2022, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs recalls
that the online platform Connect2CY established to enable the Ministry to
communicate with Cypriot citizens abroad in order to offer emergency
assistance more effectively is in operation, and encourages all Cypriots who
are already abroad or intend to travel abroad in the coming period for the
purpose of studying, to register on the platform, or if they are already
registered, to ensure that the information they have provided in their
account is correct and up-to-date. With this opportunity, the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs wishes to remind that registration of Cypriot
citizens who are abroad or intend to travel abroad for any purpose, for a
temporary (non-permanent) stay, is recommended in all cases, as it allows the
Ministry to accurately map the presence of Cypriots in every corner of the
world and thus to be able to effectively provide consular assistance where
necessary, primarily through the network of Diplomatic Missions of the
Republic, as well as through other available mechanisms. The Connect2CY online platform
was launched by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in May 2020 and is accessible
on the Ministry's website or directly at www.connect2cy.gov.cy. It was designed from the outset on
a flexible and dynamic basis and it will continuously be developed further
and upgraded, responding to the requirements of Crisis Management in our
time. (SCH) |
