Greek Parliament is being called upon, not just to vote on a pivotal bill, but also to approve a radical change in Greek education and a brave reform for growth and social justice, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said on Friday during a debate on the education ministry’s bill for higher education, ANA reports.
“It is an initiative which primarily strengthens public universities. At the same time, however, it creates a framework so that non-state, non-profit institutions can finally operate in our country. The new provisions thus acquire a catalytically modernizing and European dimension,” Mitsotakis underlined.
“The foundation of this reform is the restructuring and strengthening of the public university,” the prime minister stressed. “To free itself from the obstacles of bureaucracy. That is why 85% of the articles of the relevant bill refer to public universities, providing for funding that will cumulatively reach close to 1.5 billion euros by 2027 from European resources and from financing through the scheme of partnerships between the public and private sectors, and this beyond the money paid annually for salaries, operating costs, and infrastructure, which exceeds 1.0 billion euros.”
