🔴We strongly regret the adoption of the revised EU #fiscalrules by European Parliament

EU Council & European Commission must now find other ways to prevent budget cuts, #austerity & finance a more #SocialEurope & #JustTransition !

Our #FiscalMatters recommendations👇socialplatform.org/wp-content/upl…

Complete disconnection between #FiscalRules agreed today and signing of #LaHulpe last week

Against rumours of cutting #MFF and the shift towards investing in defence, unclear how member states and EU can make much needed social investments and work towards social progress 🤷🏻‍♂️

Meet Andrej Vršanský, CEO of the League for Mental Health in Slovakia, and one of the speakers at our conference in Bratislava!

🎙️Tune in to hear what he has to say during Panel 3 on ‘Reshaping mental health services in diverse legal frameworks’.

❌Social Platform is calling on MEPs to reject the proposed fiscal rules on Tuesday ❌

The Commission has not published their official estimates of what the rules mean. How can MEPs vote on new rules without knowing their full impact?

But research from EUROPEAN TRADE UNIONS & NEF shows👇

Thank you Enrico Letta for your rich report and our exchange.
 
You say further development of the Single Market can only be successful if it includes a genuine social dimension that ensures social justice and cohesion.
 
I couldn’t agree with you more.

Only Sweden Sweden in EU & Austria Austria at EU opposed the #LaHulpe declaration!

What does this divergence signal for the future of #SocialEurope ?

It's as if they (big business employers) all asked ChatGPT to give them a reason not to sign @LaHulpe Declaration.
Actually no, ChatGPT would do better...

#Autonomy

Despite all the deinstitutionalisation talk and projects in the EU 'persons with intellectual disabilities and people with complex support needs are most likely to still live in institutional settings.'

Today Social Platform signs #LaHulpe Declaration

With changing political winds & shrinking space for #SocialEurope we need this commitment to the EPSR, Porto Targets & the revision of the Action Plan

However as civil society we have concerns about the direction we’re heading👇

Thomas Bignal EASPD Sec Gen encourages Managing Authorities, local NGOs and other stakeholders to familiarise themselves with the tools of the #HelpdeskProject to learn more about how they can use #EUFunds to support their local projects.
