Yiannis is a strong promoter of using technology as a means to achieve positive social change. In 1992, he launched [[CYBER KIDS]], a nation-wide experiment, with the vision that introducing advanced computer technology in the lives of a critical number of young children using an educationally relevant and socially responsible, peace-enhancing curriculum would allow them to “transcend” the country’s educational and political life and move the new generation a decade ahead. By 1999, the number of children who benefited from their curriculum exceeded 15,000, which is approximately equal to 20% of the country’s youth population (ages 6-15). In 1997, together with other peace builders, he founded the Technology for Peace project, which supported Cypriot peace builders in their communication and planning at a time when no telephone signals or people could cross the cease-fire zone.
