Cities are where the EU’s policies become reality. 🏙️

At our April #EESCPlenary, we called for a stronger, more practical framework to help cities of all sizes tackle major challenges, from #ClimateChange and #Housing shortages to inequality & labour gaps.

Culture is a cornerstone of EU democracy and resilience.

At our #EESCPlenary, we debated the #CultureCompass for Europe and how to turn it into action by:
🎭 improving cultural workers’ conditions;
🎭 boosting EU funding;
🎭 embedding culture in EU policies.

European start-ups must be able to compete globally. 🌏

While Europe produces strong research and start-ups, few scale into global players.

Based on the debate at our last #EESCPlenary, we call for decisive action to strengthen Europe’s innovation field.

RT by @EU_EESC: While Europe speaks of sovereignty, 🇪🇺 companies scale elsewhere. We must move urgently from ambition to action. How❓ By fully enforcing the #SingleMarket, mobilising capital & designing regulation for growth, not for compliance.
