The ENA Institute hosted a discussion led by real estate expert Themis Bakas, focusing on the ongoing housing crisis in Greece. He engaged with Theodoros Mitrakos, coordinator of the Economic & Social Analysis Circle and member of the ENA Institute's Advisory Board, to address various issues related to housing accessibility and to propose potential policy solutions that could alleviate the situation for the Greek population.

The conversation highlighted the deteriorating conditions for housing in Greece, especially when contrasted with trends in the European Union, where housing cost burdens are either stable or decreasing. Figures show that nearly half of Greek citizens struggle with housing expenses, significantly deviating from the EU average, emphasizing the severity of the issue and the urgent need for effective solutions to improve the housing situation.

Overall, this discussion underscores a critical socio-economic challenge facing Greece, calling for immediate attention from policymakers. The ENA Institute efforts in gathering expert opinions to propose actionable strategies reflect a proactive approach to tackling the housing crisis, aiming to ensure that all citizens have access to affordable and quality housing.
