How do CEE trade unions articulate their interests? What difficulties do they notice in the process of convergence of social standards and what challenges do they see there? What prevents these organisations from being more visible at the EU level? How, to strengthen the mechanisms of cross-border union solidarity?

These are the questions to which answers came at the final seminar of the ARTUS-CEE project. Among the invited guests were Luca Visentini, the General Secretary of the European Trade Union Confederation and Esther Lynch, the Deputy General Secretary of the European Trade Union Confederation, as well as trade union representatives from Central and Eastern Europe and members of the academia.
