NextGenerationEU: share of Greece's planned expenditure by policy pillar

The NextGenerationEU economic stimulus was agreed upon in 2020 by the institutions and member states of the European Union in order to promote sustainable long-term growth in the wake of the economic fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic. In order to receive funds, the member states of the EU were required to submit a national recovery & resilience plan outlining how they would spend the funds across the six key policy areas which were chosen for investment. Each planned investment had to have a primary policy area, that which it primarily deals with, and a secondary policy area.

Greece's national recovery & resilience plan shows that the country will invest its NextGenEU funds primarily across projects which focus on the Green Transition, Digital Transformation, and Social & Territorial Cohesion policy pillars. In terms of secondary objectives of the investments, the Social & Territorial Cohesion pillar makes up the majority.
