SUMMARY:European Poverty Watch Launch
DESCRIPTION:  \nOn 8 April\, the European Anti-Poverty Network (EAPN) will launch its latest Poverty Watch Report\, “Towards a systemic approach to social protection”\, at an event co-organised by the EAPN and the EESC Civil Society. It will take place at the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) in Brussels. \nLaunch Page  \nPoverty has remained at considerable levels in Europe in recent years whilst progress towards meeting the EU’s 2030 poverty reduction targets remained limited. In this report\, EAPN tries to highlight the need for significantly systemic efforts. Additionally\, EAPN shares an update of the persistent poverty rates\, in its various manifestations. \nThe absence of a systemic approach is evident throughout the various stages of the policy cycle of social rights instruments. Among the most salient issues\, our 2024 Poverty Watch addresses: \n\nThe limited involvement of those living in poverty and social exclusion—both during the design of social protection policies and assessment of their impact.\nConcerns about the coherence of social protection policies with the basic principles governing our democracies\, as well as with other policies\nThe coverage and financing of social protection schemes\nThe growing number of challenges that hinder their protective function\, such as the Fourth Industrial Revolution\, climate change\, ageing societies\, war\, and the shrinking of democracies worldwide.\n\nAgenda link. \nThis is an in-person event that will be webstreamed. \nRegistration link: https://forms.gle/DPHzha2GgcUGEchq8
