  1. Europe must reinforce pensions to deliver security across generations.

    At our #EESCPlenary, we adopted an opinion to build trust in supplementary pension savings and help improve retirement incomes while putting more private savings into the economy.

  2. Today we celebrate the people who power our economies and societies — and the progress made on workers' rights across the EU:

    🔹 Safe & healthy workplaces
    🔹 Equal treatment
    🔹 Adequate minimum wage
    🔹 Work–life balance

  4. We often talk about rights as freedoms.

    The right to speak. The right to vote. The right to protest.

    But some of the most important rights are quieter than that.

    They show up in whether you can see a doctor in time. Whether school actually opens a future. Whether support feels like dignity, or like an obstacle course.

    Episode 9 of the Rights Chronicles is about those rights.

  6. At the High-Level Conference on Social Rights in Chisinau, I invited states to consider three pledges.

  11. Digitalising social welfare systems isn't just about "speed and efficiency". It is about the delivery of human rights.
    I outlined 5 critical risk categories we must address to ensure technology empowers rather than marginalises.

  12. Europe is losing the fight against poverty, I warn jointly with the UNSR Poverty Olivier de Schutter. This is a systemic failure. Europe needs a shift to social protection as an investment, not a burden. We call for the adoption of rights-based anti-poverty strategies, based on European Social Charter commitments.

  13. Digitalisation should be a tool for the effective enjoyment of social rights, not a barrier.
    Human rights should guide efforts to combat poverty and social protection should be seen as an investment, not a burden.
    #SocialRights #HumanRights #DigitalRights #EndChildPoverty #HLCSocial2026

  14. My focus will be on:
    • Human-centric digitalisation: Ensuring AI and digital systems include rather than exclude, backed by essential human oversight.
    • Breaking the cycle of poverty: Tackling child poverty to ensure every child has a fair start, regardless of their background.

  15. On my way to the High-level Council of Europe Conference on Social Rights in Chisinau.

    I’m looking forward to discussing how states can reconcile digital efficiency with their obligations to equality and human dignity and the need to implement human-rights centred policies to combat poverty.

  16. RT by @EU_EESC: Social justice can only be achieved when the collective voice of civil society is at the heart of decision-making. That is our work, every day, in our Civil Society Organisations' Group.

  18. "#Housing is fundamentally a question of #distribution and #SocialRights, not merely #construction targets. It shapes who can live where, access what opportunities, and build what kind of life. A progressive housing agenda must be bold enough to challenge the norm that housing has become an #asset for #WealthAccumulation, and ambitious enough to build the broad #coalitions of support necessary for sustained #PublicInvestment."

  19. #Germans keep 37% of their €9 trillion savings in low-yield accounts. Only 17% invest in stocks compared to 62% of Americans.

    The #Merz govermement aims to shift financial culture with a state-funded €10/month ‘allowance’ for children, locked until retirement. A solution or a gamble?

    19.5 million baby boomers will retire by 2036, but only 12.5 million young workers will enter the labor market.

    Can the state teach saving without guaranteeing security? #pensions #economy #socialrights

  20. The #EU just leapfrogged #China by #GDP.

    We also have:
    🗳️ Democracy & Fundamental Rights
    💼 Strong #SocialRights and reasonable working hours
    🧑‍⚕️ #UniversalHealthCare
    🌿 Strongest environmental protection in the world.

    🇪🇺 gets a lot of stick, but we compete with the world's biggest economies while protecting our people and the #environment, we should celebrate that more.

  21. We created #DeregulationWatch to track the wave of deregulation in the EU, which is driven by corporate lobbies and targets climate, workers' rights and public protections. This serves corporate power, not people. Got tips? [email protected]. #ClimateJustice #SocialRights

  22. In December a new European Commission will take office. Under the slogan of #competitiveness, they see it as their priority to hack away at public interest rules – from social rights to the environmental protections – that corporations and lobbies consider too ‘inhibiting’.

  31. In un'epoca in cui le macchine sostituiranno sempre più mestieri, migliorando l'efficienza dei servizi, la qualità dei prodotti ed aumentando la ricchezza globale, non possiamo lasciare indietro nessuno.

    Per questo motivo, oggi ho firmato la campagna #OverTheLine [1] impegnandomi a sostenere una direttiva europea sul reddito minimo in linea con la risoluzione del 2023 [2].

  32. Actually I did enjoy the #maastrichtdebate2024 - though I have enjoyed listening to some more than to others. The European #Federalists were present, not just as the proclaimed enemy of ID, the European Pillar of #SocialRights could have been more present and the #ruleoflaw part sharper. For a longer thread follow @jon and the hashtag #maastrichtdebate
