Multiannual research programme 2025–2028: Responding to Europe’s new opportunities and challenges

Eurofound's multiannual work programme for 2025–2028 addresses the opportunities and challenges arising from four key mega-drivers: climate change, demographic change, technological change and re-globalisation and geopolitical reconfiguration. These drivers reflect the uncertainty surrounding their impact on the EU as well as the unpredictability of the context and climate of polycrisis. To adapt to the evolving global context, Eurofound is continuing to incorporate greater flexibility into its work programme to adapt to the evolving global context, a changing policy agenda, as well as a new financial reality. Eurofound will focus on its core policy areas – working conditions, industrial relations, employment and living conditions – to continue to support its stakeholders by providing evidence to support their policy actions.
