An interim government is trying to save Greece from bankruptcy. But its austerity program is driving ordinary Greeks to despair. To access billions of euros in aid form the European Union and the International Monetary Fund, Greece has to stick to a strict plan to cut spending and raise revenue.

Some pupils cannot even afford packed lunches.
