Event background
On 19 -21 October 2022, in Dublin, Eurofound will pilot a 'Summer Forum' – a tripartite exchange seminar aiming to improve the capacity of social partners and governments to engage effectively in social dialogue.
The Forum addresses national level social partners and in particular early-career professionals in trade union and employer organisations as well as from government departments and other relevant public bodies.
Objectives
The Forum will provide time and space for the social partners and government representatives to:
exchange experiences and initiatives on social dialogue, collective bargaining, employment and social policies,
foster a better culture of social dialogue at national level, within the framework of a shared understanding of what constitutes the added value of the European social model,
raise the value and awareness of social dialogue and its contribution to economic and social progress in the EU through the dissemination and visibility of their outcomes,
foster forward-looking debates and building trust for more effective social dialogue.
It is not an arena for social dialogue or training in negotiations.
A number of possible thematic fields for the pilot event have been identified by Eurofound:
Managing the twin transition – strengthening social dialogue in national reform programmes and the implementation of the RRPs
Social dialogue and delivering on the European Pillar of Social Rights – Visions for social dialogue in uncertain times
Labour market developments and implications for jobs and skills – the role of social dialogue and collective bargaining
