Speak up for social rights in next State of the European Union.
Europeans are looking for assurances that their social rights are a priority and that more will
be done at EU level to fight poverty and social exclusion. 93% of Europeans are worried about
the cost of living and an ever-rising number of children and families are now living in poverty
and social exclusion. These struggles must not be ignored.
Social Platform unites
tens of thousands of organisations and hundreds of millions of people in all their diversity in
Europe and hopes to see the following included in September’s SOTEU to show that the EU is
listening and responding to what Europeans want, a more social and equal Europe:
- An EU Directive on Adequate Minimum Income
- A union of equality
- . Supporting solidarity with people displaced by war
- Empowering social services and social economy
- . A European Civil Society Strategy
