Greece's four systemic banks have pledged a donation of €160 million aimed at renovating and modernizing the infrastructure of three major universities: the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (EKPA), Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH), and National Technical University of Athens (NTUA). This initiative was announced during a meeting chaired by Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, who highlighted the importance of enhancing public higher education facilities.
The initiative is described as a significant boost for the universities, which have reportedly faced delays in infrastructure improvements over the past seven years. Opposition party SYRIZA noted the long wait for funding, criticizing the government's reliance on bank donations for university renovations. This funding marks a collaborative effort by the banking sector to strengthen the educational landscape in Greece, reaffirming commitments to support public education through substantial financial investments.
