{jathumbnail}On November 23rd, the four paltforms and 21 European NGO’s have sent a letter to Commissioner Andor demanding calling for the strenghthening of the Social OMC in the future Platform Against-Poverty.
The co-signatories believe that the main obstacle is not its conceptual framework, but the lack of political will and commitment to make this Framework deliver in the fight against poverty and social exclusion, as well in the areas of adequacy and sustainability of Pensions and accessible Health and Long-term care. For them all, there can be no Europe 2020 Strategy without a reinforced social OMC.
Read the letter. Other organisations have been signing the letter, which will therefore be updated. If your organisation wishes to sign it as well, please send an email to team@eapn.eu.
