The upcoming Commission-proposal and subsequent negotiations surrounding the post-2027 Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) will take place at a crucial moment of heightened tensions between the EU’s strategic objectives and the size and allocation of its budget.
This joint public hearing is being organised as part of preparations for two related opinions. Firstly, it will gather insights from organised civil society on progress with, and the challenges of, implementing the European Pillar of Social Rights (EPSR), and will involve collecting proposals for the upcoming new EPSR Action Plan. Secondly, the hearing will also discuss the forthcoming EU Anti-Poverty Strategy, including the role of the social partners and other civil society organisations in shaping policies and measures to combat poverty and social exclusion within the EPSR framework.
The agenda and all information regarding this plenary session will be available 8 days prior to the event. You will be able to follow the debates by web streaming. Web streaming
