Il comitato di monitoraggio UE-Russia è l'organismo interno del CESE responsabile delle relazioni con la società civile russa.

Da quando le autorità della Federazione russa hanno lanciato la guerra contro l'Ucraina, il 24 febbraio 2022, la libera società civile russa è stata ridotta al silenzio da leggi speciali e da una repressione crescente, mentre molti critici del regime sono stati costretti all'esilio.

Nelle difficili circostanze attuali, il CESE ha deciso di mantenere aperta la porta al dialogo con la sezione contro la guerra della società civile russa presente sul territorio dell'UE.

Tali contatti hanno portato a scambi proficui di informazioni e opinioni sul modo in cui le relazioni bilaterali dovrebbero evolversi dopo la fine della guerra e con il ritorno della libertà e della democrazia nel paese.

  • Strong civil society and independent media are the firewall against disinformation

    Reference number
    25/2023

    On 12 June, the EESC launched its first event on fighting disinformation, kick-starting an awareness-raising campaign ahead of the European Parliament elections in 2024. The event, which gathered prominent figures from the civil society, media and youth organisations, highlighted the need for a more bottom-up approach with a strong civil society network countering disinformation on the ground. However, political awareness and solid legislative framework together with independent media are also crucial in the fight against fake news penetration.

  • War in Ukraine poses major challenge for EU cohesion policy, EESC cautions

    Cohesion policy is key to overcoming the COVID-19 crisis, to achieving climate neutrality by 2050 and to reducing disparities in Europe. Its most serious challenge for the foreseeable future, however, is the war in Ukraine, the EESC cautions in a recent opinion. Rapid action is needed to help refugees and ensure the country's European integration.

    The European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) is working on a project on disinformation to be implemented with the help of civil society. Disinformation typically spreads among the population, often horizontally, so that the best way to tackle the problem is not in a top-down approach, but in citizens’ reflection and direct engagement. This is where organized civil society can play a crucial role.

    Published in
    8 pages

    The External Relations Section (REX) of the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) is responsible for dialogue between European civil society organisations and their homologues from the countries with which the European Union has formal relations (e.g. under the form of a Free Trade Agreement). Through this dialogue, made possible by a series of bilateral bodies, and through specialized opinions and information reports, the Committee is able to concretely contribute to EU foreign policy.
