The case of Greece

We believe that Parliaments should reflect the diversity of society. Thresholds lead to high levels of unrepresented voters, therefore, damaging democracy

Minority parties in
Greece are excluded
by a 3% threshold

Barriers to representation
are barriers to democracy

The Turkish minority in Greece is 1.2% of the population. Its political party is blocked by a nationwide 3% threshold. We believe that parliaments should reflect the diversity of society. Thresholds deny a voice to minorities.

A diverse society deserves
a diverse parliament

We believe that Parliaments should reflect the diversity of society. Thresholds lead to high levels of unrepresented voters, therefore, damaging democracy.
