How can social dialogue be enhanced to implement social justice and decent work policies across the Eastern Partnership countries?

The Eastern Partnership Civil Society Forum is pleased to publish its Working Group 5 policy paper examining how social partners and civil society can play a more active and meaningful role in strengthening social dialogue across Eastern Partnership countries.

The paper specifically explores the mechanisms through which civil society organisations can contribute to the formulation and implementation of social justice and decent work policies. It focuses on identifying concrete actions that can be taken to enhance participation of EaP social partners and civil society in social dialogue processes, while considering the unique political, economic, and social contexts of different EaP countries.

This event will take place on Tuesday 6 May 2025 between 14:00 – 16:00 CEST at the Eastern Partnership Civil Society Forum, Avenue de Cortenbergh 120, 1000 Brussels.
