Greece protests rising living costs
Thousands of students, teachers, and public sector employees Demonstrated in Athens and other Greek cities, protesting the high cost of living and the deterioration of educational conditions, especially the lack of infrastructure and staff, with a shortage of 15,000 teachers in secondary schools. The protests are taking place in the context of similar demonstrations in France, with the protesters demanding increased spending on education and improved economic conditions. Data indicates that Greece allocated 3.3% of its GDP to education in 2023, less than the European Union average of 4.7%. The Greek government affirms that it will avoid a slide into major social unrest like the one experienced during the financial crisis.
