This is a 2022 country report on gender equality in Greece, produced under the European Network of Legal Experts in Gender Equality and Non-Discrimination programme, covering political, economic and social spheres of power.
Objectives
The report aims to give a comprehensive analysis of Greece's legal and policy framework for gender equality and to identify both areas of progress and areas needing further action.
Activities
It reviews Greek legislation and policy, including the Gender Equality Law, gender quotas in political parties, the national action plan on gender-based violence, and specialised police units addressing it.
Results
The report finds progress in areas such as the Gender Equality Law, political-party gender quotas, and a national action plan with specialised police units on gender-based violence, alongside persisting challenges: gender stereotypes, the gender pay gap, and the underrepresentation of women in private-sector leadership.
Conclusions
The report concludes that further action is needed on effective implementation and enforcement of existing gender-equality laws and policies, and is intended as a reference for Greek policymakers.

Implementation detail (cost, timeline, staffing, conditions for success) is not yet available for this practice.
