Mapping the Greek diaspora

How can we strengthen ties between Greece and its diaspora, this growing (also as a result of the financial crisis) community that includes politicians, businesspeople, academics, scientists and artists? How can the Greeks who live abroad take a step beyond cost-free, wishful rhetoric and help to tangibly change the situation back home?

The lovely artist, described by a satirical program as looking like a "playboy bunny from the Eighties",  is the most famous wife who has looks and money.
