Full programme

For Europe’s economies to re-emerge stronger from the Covid crisis and to set the pace for innovative and future-oriented green and digital societies, the European Union pursues an ambitious green-digital transformation policy agenda. To ensure that this twin transition is rolled-out in a sustainable manner which leaves no one behind, it needs socially-friendly support elements for and with workers at its core.   

Via keynote addresses, plenary debates and a series of interactive workshops, experts and representatives from think tanks, trade unions, employer organisations, institutions and the civil society shall debate on ways to ensure that Europe’s bounce-back from the pandemic targets climate neutrality, digitalisation and social fairness and opportunities alike.
