Promoting social cohesion and convergence

This activity was part of the 2021–2024 work programme and is no longer updated.

The following topic page summarises Eurofound's work in the areas of cohesion and convergence.

Convergence and social cohesion
Upward convergence is of utmost importance for the European Union project. For given economic and social indicators, upward convergence means that Member States are on average improving their performance by moving towards a policy target or a societally acceptable direction, while they are reducing the disparities among them. In this way, the lower performing countries are catching up towards the best performing ones, while both are growing.
