Report for Greece

This report on Greece is part of the “EU Funds for Fundamental Rights (FURI)” project, funded by the EU Citizens, Equality, Rights and Values Programme (CERV).

The core aim of FURI is to raise awareness of the binding applicability of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights (the Charter) and the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD) in EU funding.

This includes strengthening compliance with these binding instruments, by enhancing the preparedness of competent stakeholders to monitor and, where necessary, take remedial action for EU-funded projects that fail to meet these obligations.

In this context, this report examines key areas where EU Funds intersect with persistent human rights challenges in Greece. Focus is placed on the rights of applicants of international protection, persons with disabilities and the Greek Roma community, as vulnerable groups.
