The Ecologist Greens (Greek: Οικολόγοι Πράσινοι, Oikologoi Prasinoi) are a green political party in Greece. The party was founded in 2002 as a federation of ecological groups and movements, including Prasini Politiki ("Green Politics").
The Ecologist Greens identify with green politics and environmentalism, combining ecological sustainability with social justice, participatory democracy, and human rights. They have been associated with the European Green Party, although their membership rights were suspended in December 2023.
The party first gained national attention in the 2009 European Parliament election, when it won 3.49% of the vote and elected one Member of the European Parliament. Since then its vote share has declined, and it has not won parliamentary representation in the Hellenic Parliament. In the May 2023 election it received 0.60% of the vote, and in the repeat election of June 2023 this fell to 0.41%.
In February 2024, the Ecologist Greens merged with the party Greens–Solidarity and other activists to form a new green political formation under the name Green–Ecology. The new party adopted the manifesto of the European Green Party, with Vasiliki Grammatikogianni and Ilias Gianniris elected as co-leaders.
