In demographic and housing hierarchy priorities by the Minister of Social Cohesion and Family Domna Michaelidouin an interview with the National Preacher, on the occasion of her presence in New York for events at the UN General Assembly.
Demographic and housing are connectedas Domna Michaelidou says, with a more comprehensive policy for young people, family and social integration, with the aim of changing the country’s prospect the next day.
In the youth legdescribes a “shift” from policies for young people to policies with young people. He reminds us that more than four hundred actions were organized in the European Year of Youth with about fifty thousand young people and argues that their involvement in decision -making came to stay. It cites the sharp decline in young people’s unemployment compared to four years ago and the overall unemployment recession in the country, attributing them to growth, encouragement of investment, obstacles and incentives for recruitment, as well as strengthening dynamic sectors such as new technologies. In this context, demographic and housing are treated as horizontal challenges that directly affect the choices and opportunities of the younger generation.
For the social policy He announces that in November, 250 euros will be supported by people with disabilities and retirees, while a monthly rent will be returned to about 950,000 beneficiaries in the same month. It recalls the gradual abolition of “personal difference” in pensions and states that disability benefits have increased a total of more than eight percent. Special mention is made to extend the deaf allowance at the ages of 18 to 65, the “Personal Assistant” program already covering 1,600 fellow citizens, as well as in “home accessibility” for home and workplace interventions.
To equal opportunities policies It also includes a new “digital empowerment” program for people with disabilities and the elderly. He stresses that successive increases in the minimum wage – which, he notes, has reached 880 euros – and targeted tax interventions will be in income from the new year, especially for those in need. It reiterates the position that the positive result in the economy returns to citizens as a social dividend.
To demographicwhich characterizes Issue of “national character” and long -term breathlinks policies to young people with the policies for the child and the family. It is reminiscent of the birth allowance of € 2,400, the expansion of maternity leave to the nine months in the private sector, the establishment of paternity license and vouchers to access nursery stations. He stresses that the tax reliefs announced at the TIF also have a clear targeting of demographics, with the strengthening of young people and families with more children.
For the Participation of young people in public dialogue It cites existing tools: Youth Municipal Councils, International Youth Fora and the National Youth Council. As an example from the party level, he mentions the quota of ten percent young in the New Democracy Political Committee. In the international field, he notes contacts on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly with counterparts from China, Bulgaria, Colombia, Panama and Armenia, as well as with the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Germany. It also refers to its participation in an international initiative to de -fur children, where – as it points out – Greece has achieved a 50%reduction.
As a more direct priority, beyond demographic, distinguishes the mortgage. He speaks of the need to boost the housing stock to meet a significant part of the needs and refers to “active and successful” tools, such as “My Home” 1 and 2 programs, which – as he argues – have provided and provide solutions. It mentions a total package of housing policies of € 6.5 billion raised on a single information platform, adding that two new tools have adopted by a recent law: social consideration and utilization of inert campies of the Ministry of Interior, mainly for social housing.
Message sends and to the homogeneitystressing that Greece “welcomes its children back” and that hundreds of thousands of people have already returned in recent years. When reading, improving the economy, new investments and the best conditions in the labor market create a more favorable environment to live and create in Greece.
