Decrease in Large Families and Financial Assistance in Cyprus
March 26, 2026
The number of large families in Cyprus has significantly decreased, with only 6.5% receiving child benefits. From 2012 to 2024, families receiving financial assistance dropped by 65%. Births of Cypriot citizens have reached historic lows. A group of large families has appealed to the President of the Republic for support. Political choices seem to have contributed to this situation.
