Golitsis is also a member of the steering committee of the Center of Greek and Chinese Civilizations, which is a nonprofit organization established in 2021 by four Greek universities, dedicated to the promotion of research into ancient Greek and ancient Chinese civilizations and their deeper understanding through a comparative approach.

Chinese philosophy differs significantly from Greek philosophy in certain aspects; yet by understanding these differences, I, at least, have come to appreciate both traditions more fully. I feel like a participant in a global philosophical conversation," said Golitsis.
