As lições aprendidas com a austeridade tornam obrigatória uma mudança de rumo
Press Release

O CESE propõe medidas para evitar os rigores da austeridade no futuro e compensar o impacto negativo da gestão da passada crise

A gestão das futuras crises deve permitir um melhor equilíbrio entre objetivos orçamentais e sociais, para prevenir efeitos negativos sobre a capacidade económica, o mercado de trabalho e os regimes de segurança social dos países afetados. Em vez de uma austeridade restritiva, em futuras situações de crise as instituições da UE deveriam aplicar políticas que favoreçam a cooperação económica, o crescimento e a solidariedade.

Globally, inequality and poverty also have led to migration, fostering, inequality and tensions in the host countries.

The fight against inequalities is also linked to the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
