AEGEE-Athina is one of the first and biggest antennae in Europe. Founded in 1986 it numbers, nowadays, approximately 400 members. Aiming to bring European students closer and to srengthen the idea of students' mobility and communication, the Local of Athina organises a wide range of events in European as well as in local level.

AEGEE-Athina has already organised successfully three Agoras, in 1992, 1996 and 2002. It has also organised the final conference of the European educational programme "Socrates on the move II" with the participation of 40 students and representatives of the European Committee (April 2002). In the field of Internal Education two European Schools have taken place in Athens, in July 1999 and April 2001.

Cultural exchanges are also a very central activity in AEGEE-Athina. Such events have been organised in cooperation with other antennas like Istanbul and Skopje and are always a good example of how people with political differences can work together.

AEGEE-Athina has also organised a series of Summer Universities (every year since 1986!). Each one has been a unique chance to bring closer people from all around Europe through a 15-days experience of culture and entertainment.

In the field of internal education, AEGEE-Athina organises twice a year the Athenian School, a trip introducing new members to the AEGEE spirit. Since 2004, AEGEE-Athina organises also a Local Training Course (LTC) that takes place twice a year. Old and new members have the chance to learn how AEGEE events are organised and how AEGEE works in both local and European level through lectures, workshops and simulations.  Finally, AEGEE-Athina publishes the EUROPOLIS magazine in order to keep new and old members informed.

Working Groups keep the members active throughout the year by proposing ways of expression and types of action in the fields of human rights, environment, sports and education.

Moral support to AEGEE-Athina has been repetedly offered by the former President of the Hellenic Republic, Mr. Stefanopoulos, the Patriarch of the Orthodox Church, Vartholomaios, the former Mayor of Athens, Mr. Avramopoulos, the former Rector of the National Technological University of Athens, Mr. Markatos, the former Rector of the Economical University Of Athens, Mr. Venieris, as well as the present Rector of the Economical University of Athens.
