The social economy is a vital part of the European social and economic system. It generates and maintains high-quality jobs, fosters the inclusion of marginalised groups into the labour market, promotes sustainable business practices, and provides employment for millions of people. In this way, it makes the single market more inclusive, our societies more cohesive and fosters employment models that are tailored to local and communal needs.
This public hearing aims to exchange views with civil society representatives from candidate countries and EU's stakeholders on the opportunities and challenges for the EU-agri-food sector with EU enlargement and to identify the contributions of the accession countries to the EU's social, environmental, and economic sustainability.
587th Plenary session, with the following guests: Věra Jourová, European Commission Vice-President for Values and Transparency; Ken Godfrey, Executive Director of the European Partnership for Democracy; Ylva Johansson, European Commissioner for Home Affairs; Professor Mario Draghi, (tbc); Helena Dalli, European Commissioner for Equality (tbc), Florence Raes, Director of UN Women Brussels, Iliana Balabanova, President of European Women's Lobby (tbc), Ilaria Todde, Advocacy Director of Eurocentralasian Lesbian Community, Iluta Lace, Head of MARTA Centre for Women and Sif Holst, President of the EESC Equality Group.
