Ultimii doi elevi din Kalamos: cum arată criza demografică dincolo de statistici

The demographic crisis in Europe is exemplified by the situation on Kalamos Island, Greece, where only two students remain in the last school. The decline in birth rates and youth migration threaten local communities and schools. As the population dwindles, authorities have closed numerous schools across Greece, reflecting a broader trend in Europe where aging populations lead to educational and service declines. Kalamos, with a year-round population of just 80, faces imminent school closure as students leave for secondary education. Efforts to attract families to the island have been unsuccessful, highlighting the urgent need for solutions to reverse this demographic decline.
