In view of the formidable challenges ahead related to recovery from the Covid-19 crisis and to the green and digital transitions, the ETUI asked the OSE, following a competitive tender, to reflect on how the EU social governance toolbox could be further strengthened.
Social rights
The OSE is a partner in a new Horizon2020 European research project named ‘Working, Yet Poor’ (WorkYP). The project (2020- 2023) is being coordinated by the University of Luxembourg and involves eight European universities as well as three ‘social rights institutions’, including the OSE and the European Anti-poverty network (EAPN). The consortium explores the drivers of the recurrent phenomenon of in-work poverty (IWP) in the EU in the light of social rights of EU workers and citizens, notably those proclaimed in the European Pillar of Social Rights (EPSR).
This research project culminated in the 20th edition of Social policy in the EU: state of play. This anniversary edition looks back at the main developments in EU social policymaking over the past two decades.
In-Work Poverty in Europe
The Final Conference of the WorkYP Project, funded by the Horizon 2020 scheme for the years 2020-2023, will take place on January 26, 2023. 09:00-17:00 CET at the International Auditorium (International Trade Union House) in Brussels as well as online.
The OSE and ETUI have the pleasure of inviting you to a presentation-debate for the launch of the 20th edition of ‘Social policy in the European Union’.
