ABSTRACT:
The 2008 Financial Crisis heavily impacted the Greek economy due to economic mismanagement, poor bailout measures, structural weaknesses already present in the economic system of the Greek economy, and government failing to accurately report debt levels in the country. This resulted in a large amount of poverty following 2009, and a large recession in the country. However, in 2015 Greece also committed to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030, which was set by the United Nations, and Goal 8 was achieving Decent Work and Economic Growth. Utilising the 10 sub-goals set by the United Nations, it was found that Greece was on track to achieve 7 of the goals, however still needed to do more action regarding 3 of the goals, for them to be met.
