Tackle the unsustainable social situation in the EU

Social Platform letter to the European Council of March 20-21, 2014, calling on the heads of state and government to take the necessary decisions to rectify the current situation and to reinstall the social dimension of the Europe 2020 strategy:

  1. Ensure a strong social dimension to economic governance through ex-ante coordination of fiscal, economic and social policies and reforms.
  2. Steer the Mid-term Review towards the embedding of ambitious EU strategies for combating poverty, inequalities and unemployment in Europe 2020.
  3. Provide guidance on true civil and social dialogue, in particular in the context of the NRPs and the Mid-term Review.
