We're looking forward to working together on the European Pillar of #SocialRights!

Thanks to @eurocarers.bsky.social, @ageplatformeu.bsky.social, @mentalhealtheurope.bsky.social & @housingeurope.bsky.social for bringing important insights & perspectives to our Social Platform delegation 🙏

Dark blue background with Social Platform's logo in top right corner. Quote from Laura de Bonfils, Secretary General reads: The European Commission’s narrow focus on competitiveness risks undermining the EU’s social goals and deprioritising wellbeing for all.

The Commission's #CompetitivenessCompass, the new growth strategy for Europe, risks undermining the EU’s social agenda.

Resilient, fair societies need more than just skills and labour market participation - we need a strong social foundation where #SocialRights are prioritised and protected!
