Against this backdrop, policies to support families, encourage relocation to rural areas and create opportunities for young people have become increasingly important. Tackling the demographic crisis requires a long-term national strategy that combines regional development with jobs, quality of life and sustainable growth. One year ago, the government launched a pilot relocation program in the northeastern region of Evros, offering incentives to people willing to settle permanently in the municipalities of Soufli, Didymoteicho and Orestiada. Officials acknowledged that strict criteria limited participation, with many applicants unable to prove genuine relocation or meet employment requirements.
