Greece is implementing the ‘Marietta Giannakou Program’ to modernize educational infrastructure through renovations of school buildings. The program involves various repairs, including painting, roof work, insulation, and improvements to accessibility and sanitary facilities.

Funding for the initiative is provided by the country’s systemic banks—Alpha Bank, Eurobank, National Bank of Greece, and Piraeus Bank. While early works have focused on primary schools and kindergartens in regions such as the Peloponnese, the program has expanded to include a 160 million euro allocation for upgrading facilities at major institutions, including the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, and the National Technical University of Athens.
