Beyond the economic crisis: Greece’s other existential challenges
More than eight years after the signing of the first bailout package, Greece has now returned to positive – albeit eager – growth rates. However, is the Greek crisis over? Using data from a series of studies conducted by the Greek think tank diaNEOsis, the case will be made that Greece is facing four existential challenges in the years ahead: the second worst demographic profile in the EU, a slow adaption to climate change and to the forces of technological change, along with the lowest level of social capital in the EU.
