Greece’s demographic crisis in the regions was the focus of a conference titled “The Demographic Problem in Greece: Chios, Psara, Oinousses, the border islands under strain,” held at the Omireio Cultural Center in Chios.

The event was organized by the Ithaca Demographic Forum, the Greek Inter-municipal Network of Healthy Cities, and the Hellenic Society of Reproductive Medicine, under the auspices of the Municipality of Chios. Participants noted that in many parts of regional Greece, couples of childbearing age have essentially disappeared, underscoring the severity of the issue.

Scientists and government representatives stressed that low birth rates, an aging population, and the depopulation of border regions rank among the country’s most pressing challenges, calling for immediate, coordinated action to strengthen local communities.

The Scale of the Demographic Decline

Vyron Kotzamanis, professor emeritus of Demography and director at the Institute of Demographic Research and Studies, described Chios as a microcosm of Greece. He noted that the population is concentrated mainly in the island’s central area, highlighting the gap between the center and outlying regions.
