European Consumer Day 2022

Since 1999, the EESC has been organising the European Consumer Day where consumers gather to influence the EU debate.
The topic of this year was "Empowering consumers for a more sustainable world". The objective was to reflect on how to give consumers the information they need and how to help them make the best choices when purchasing a product. 
Round tables focused on topics such as tech for good, the right to reparability, the functional economy, consumption and health.
The event held  both in Brussels and online. It gathered high level speakers and representatives of EU institutions, national governments and civil society organisations.
