Finding
The Greek Economic and Social Committee was established to promote stakeholder consultation on the SDGs, working under a tripartite structure representing the interests of employers, entrepreneurs, public and private sector employees, and other interest groups. It is led by an Executive Committee, which serves as the main channel to share the government VNR draft report with stakeholders, and receive their comments on each SDG’s analysis. The Committee organized and communicated inputs to the Greek Office of Coordination, Institutional, International, and European Affairs, which was in charge of writing the VNR report. The Office also maintained consultations on issues to be prioritized with focal government stakeholders such as the Central Union of Municipalities and the Association of Greek Regions, which provided input directly to the Office.
