In 2013, Anna brought the word “whistleblowing” to Greece at a time when the term was largely unknown to the general public. This took place within the framework of the EU-funded research she conducted for Transparency International Greece – in which she served as chair and member of the Strategy Reference Group – where she advocated for the enactment of a law for the protection of whistleblowers. One year later, the first Greek law for the protection of the so-called “witnesses of public interest” came into force.
