Promoting social cohesion and convergence

Promoting social cohesion and convergence is one of the six main activities in Eurofound’s 2021–2024 work programme. Over this period, Eurofound will continue to monitor and analyse the key trends and determinants of achieving upward convergence in living and working conditions and strengthening economic and social cohesion in the EU. The COVID-19 pandemic presents an unprecedented challenge to the economic and social resilience of the EU. Over the next period, Eurofound will report regularly on trends in upward convergence in the socio-economic dimension, as well as in the dimensions outlined in the European Pillar of Social Rights at Member State and regional levels, while also comparing the EU with other developed countries. The agency will pay attention to a range of factors: social investment, mobility and institutional frameworks, regulation, welfare systems, institutional quality and public services, social dialogue and structural reforms. The research will also examine the effectiveness of the EU’s response to the pandemic for economic and social convergence and consider the situation in the euro area, as well as focusing on the role of industrial relations processes in influencing convergence.
