Στρατηγική Ανάλυση

Εκτιμήσεις για την πορεία της ελληνικής οικονομίας                                              το 2021 και το 2022

 

 

Το Ινστιτούτο Εργασίας της ΓΣΕΕ σε συνεργασία με το Levy Economics Institute του Bard College ΝΥ παρουσιάζουν τις εκτιμήσεις τους για την πορεία της ελληνικής οικονομίας το 2021 και το 2022.

 

Σύμφωνα με τα εμπειρικά μας ευρήματά, η οικονομική μεγέθυνση της ελληνικής οικονομίας, σύμφωνα με το βασικό σενάριο της ανάλυσής μας, εκτιμάται ότι θα είναι 3,4% το 2021 και 4,9% το 2022. Τα ευρήματα αυτά δείχνουν ότι η ελληνική οικονομία δεν θα μπορέσει να επιστρέψει στο προ πανδημίας επίπεδο του ΑΕΠ αν δεν υπάρξουν αποτελεσματικές παρεμβάσεις.

 

Εξετάσαμε δύο σενάρια οικονομικής πολιτικής. Το ένα δίνει έμφαση στην ανάκαμψη της οικονομίας μέσω των δημόσιων επενδύσεων και της απορρόφησης των πόρων του Ταμείου Ανάκαμψης και Ανθεκτικότητας και το άλλο μέσω της εφαρμογής ενός προγράμματος εγγυημένης απασχόλησης που στοχεύει στην ουσιαστική μείωση της ανεργίας. Τα ευρήματα δείχνουν ότι ο χρόνος απορρόφησης και ο όγκος των πόρων του Ταμείου Ανάκαμψης και Ανθεκτικότητας και το μέγεθος του προγράμματος εγγυημένης απασχόλησης είναι σημαντικές προσδιοριστικές παράμετροι της δυναμικής της ανάκαμψης της ελληνικής οικονομίας.

Επισυνάπτεται το πλήρες κείμενο.

Για περισσότερες πληροφορίες                                                                                                                                                           Φαίη Αθουσάκη,

Milk for Flint Drive Delivers Covid Relief More than a thousand people provided with humanitarian aid

The AHEPA family of Michigan completed its second Covid relief drive under the banner of its “Milk for Flint” Drive. The drive provided humanitarian assistance to 347 individuals and families, representing 1,121 people, on May 18, 2021. In addition to delivering milk, the Ahepans and Daughters volunteered to help distribute donated USDA food boxes. Each box contained meats, cheeses, milk, fruits, vegetables, and more. They also distributed “Personal item bags” to 231 adults and 130 children that contained toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, and soap; items that most of us take for granted. The Ahepans and Daughters also supported a free vision screening station, which was a new and popular service to those individuals who would not normally be able to afford access to the service. Vision screenings were provided to 56 individuals and 253 eyeglass frames were given out for free. Chairman Craig Theros, PSG, thanked Flint's Catholic Charities "Center for Hope," led by Mary Stevenson, for once again making the "first call for help" to AHEPA to distribute the USDA food boxes.

When asked, “Why the AHEPA first,” Mary stated, "The AHEPA has been a very reliable group that continues to want to help those in need. Other groups come and go, but the AHEPA has been a constant force in helping those in one of Michigan's most depressed communities since 2016." Theros also thanked Judge Tom Yeotis for buying lunch for all the volunteers after the drive ended. Ten "Milk for Flint" Drives have been held--eight of which each delivered a truckload of nearly 2,000 gallons of milk and two of which have provided Covid relief. AHEPA has raised more than $30,000 to donate 15,552 gallons of milk to aid the victims, earning special recognition from the City of Flint.

Help to Pass U.S. House's Greek Independence Resolution

House Resolution Recognizing 200th Anniversary of Greek Independence Needs More Co-Sponsors - Ask Your U.S. Representative to Co-sponsor! Thank you to everyone who has outreached to their members of Congress and who have secured their co-sponsorships! We've received quite a few emails of your success stories.  A bipartisan resolution in the U.S. House of Representatives recognizing the 200th anniversary of the independence of Greece has been introduced by lead sponsor U.S. Rep. Gus Bilirakis (R-FL) and several original sponsors from the Congressional Hellenic Caucus. The resolution, H.Res.246, emphasizes the hard-fought struggle for independence of the Greek people, and the historic and dynamic relationship that defines the deep American-Hellenic ties. The resolution has ten co-sponsors and rests with the House Committee on Foreign Affairs. “We encourage the community to outreach to their U.S. representative to urge their co-sponsorship of the House resolution," Supreme President George G. Horiates said. "We call for the U.S. House of Representatives to pass it swiftly." AHEPA applauded the Senate's passage of a companion bipartisan Senate resolution commemorating the 200th anniversary of Greek Independence Day, sponsored by U.S. Senators Robert Menendez (D-NJ) and John Barrasso (R-WY), on March 25, 2021, Supreme President Horiates said.

AHEPA presents $20,000 to Odyssey Charter School Supreme President leads groundbreaking for newest monument

On Tuesday, May 25, 2021, Supreme President George G Horiates traveled to Wilmington, Delaware to visit the Odyssey Charter School. The school, created by AHEPA Wilmington Chapter and supported over the years by AHEPA is a charter school that specializes in immersion techniques for Greek language.

Last year the Supreme President was the guest commencement speaker at the school’s first 12th grade graduation. Noting pre-pandemic AHEPA’s support of the school, AHEPA’s last regional banquet was a benefit for Odyssey in 2019. Today, the Supreme President presented the administration at Odyssey with a $20,000 gift from AHEPA. Elias Rhigas, President of the Board of Directors stated “the school wanted to stay true to its roots of a Hellenistic education. We have seen AHEPA leading the diaspora in celebrating the Greek Bicentennial. We thought what a wonderful expression of gratitude in having the Supreme President come again this year like so many of his predecessors.”

Elias Pappas, Head of the school stated, “These monies will go towards the building of a monument base and flag pole carrying the flags of the USA and Greece at the front of the school. A brick array and marble bases will also be created with AHEPA prominently displayed for our future students, parents and administrators to know that it was AHEPA that assisted not only in the formative years but throughout with its dedication to Hellenism and education.” “We thank the Odyssey Charter School for continuing in the promotion of Hellenism through education, we are proud of what has been accomplished here,” remarked Supreme President Horiates. "Additionally, the Greek Bicentennial year and the wind up to our AHEPA Centennial has been a wonderful time as AHEPA has highlighted and categorized its public works." The Supreme President cited AHEPA’s first public work in Ypsilanti, its second work dedicated to Dr. Samuel Gridley Howe in Rhode Island, the Sons of Pericles memorial dedicated to the Exodus of Missolonghi in Greece and AHEPA’s support of the Brumidi statue in Annapolis as examples of statues recently highlighted during the Bicentennial. Supreme President Horiates emphasized that there are many others, and that, “adding the Odyssey Charter School to this long and historic list during this Greek Bicentennial year will historically record the work of AHEPA on this campus with hopes for its future”.

The Odyssey Charter School, started by AHEPA, specializes in Greek language immersion and teaches generations about every aspect of Hellenism. AHEPA continues its support of this superior facility. To learn more, please visit their website by clicking the button below.
