Events
Builders of Progress: Europe’s Next Gen survey launch!
11 October – FEPS Headquarters, Brussels

Join us in the launch of Europe’s most extensive youth-focused survey! The Builders of Progress final report launch event will conclude a three-year research period, during which 19,000 young Europeans aged 16-38 were surveyed.

The project follows the tradition of FEPS’s long-standing work on researching Millennials and expands it to include Generation Z.

We would be delighted to welcome you in person at the FEPS headquarters in Brussels to fully enjoy the numerous expert panels, lunch, dinner and live music offered during the event. One part of the event will also be live-streamed.

We will discuss the project’s results on various topics, including young people’s views on political participation, climate change, equality, EU policies, the war in Ukraine, and the Covid-19 pandemic.
12-13 October – Berlin, Germany

Difficult times call for good friends. And even more so, good friends with a plan. Join leading international politicians, thinkers and strategists from both sides of the Atlantic as we plan what comes next for progressives.

This year’s PGS will explore how to build reliable progressive alliances that can respond to the urgent challenges our democracies are facing while shifting societies to a more green and just future.

Chancellor Olaf Scholz and EC VP Frans Timmermans will be among the speakers. Stay tuned for news on #PGS22!

All sessions on the main stage will also be live-streamed. Register here.

BOOK
By László Andor

The European social model has been subjected to diverse debates, often doubting its existence or announcing the end of such a model.

Four factors have challenged the fate of welfare states & social standards in the EU: 1) neoliberal globalization 2) monetary union 3) eastern enlargement 4) digitalization

FEPS Secretary General, László Andor, examines them, offering first-rate analysis & imaginative ideas on the reforms needed to cope with them.

“It appears that major economic transformations and, in particular, the risk of intra-EU imbalances, divergence and polarisation drive forward social policy integration among European countries.” Read More

POLICY BRIEF
By Annette Schrauwen

Ensuring the right to health in Europe is impossible without a sufficient health workforce. Yet the unequal distribution of the health workforce in ‘periphery’ countries and the ‘centre’ has hardly emerged in the discourse on a European Health Union.

This policy brief highlights why discussing health workforce challenges must be part of the EHU. It explores how existing EU competencies can be used to address these distributional inequalities and ultimately ensure access to health for all Read more

#125 FEPS Talks Podcast

🎙️Ana Sofia Fernandez, President of the Portuguese Platform for Women’s Rights, and Laeticia Thissen, FEPS Policy Analyst for Gender Equality, exchange on the gendered nature of economic policy and governance mechanisms at EU level.

How do budgets mirror political priorities? What is their influence in perpetuating or redressing persisting gender gaps? How do they discriminate based on gendered assumptions about society and the economy? How can they be used as a powerful tool in transforming our societies? To what extent are gender budgeting tools applied in the recovery plans? These are some of the points touched upon as the EU is faced with crisis after crisis affecting women in acutely singular ways.

Hundreds of millions of Europeans are currently experiencing the highest inflation of their lifetime, but its social impact is still under-appreciated.
