About the show

In Greek, BORO (Μπορώ) means “I can.” We all carry dreams and hopes for change: safer streets, better healthcare, affordable housing. In the BORO series, Yiannis sits down with guests from around the world to talk about the changes they are making and what empowered them to say "I CAN". In 30 minutes, each episode drops you into a personal story of change — why it matters, and how we all can be part of it.
