Parent association elections in Lesvos municipalities
Overview
In the municipalities of Mytilene and West Lesvos, Parents and Guardians Associations are being called to conduct elections by December 31, 2026.
In Mytilene, the local association noted that current legislation requires these elections to occur every two years during the period from September 1 to December 31 of even-numbered years. This unified cycle is intended to ensure legal representation within boards, unions, and federations. Associations that held elections in 2025 are advised to hold new elections in 2026 to align with the biennial cycle.
Similarly, the Union of Parents and Guardians Associations of West Lesvos cited Greek Law 1566/1985 and Law 4415/2016 as the basis for the biennial requirement. The Union has urged mass participation and emphasized the need for associations to organize General Assemblies, appoint three-member electoral committees, and utilize secret ballots to ensure compliance with legal statutes and maintain uniform terms across the municipality.
