CELSI together with EU-level social partners EPSU and HOPEEM undertook a survey in ten EU countries and co-organised two regional meetings within the project "Strengthening social dialogue in the hospital sector in the East, South and Central Europe".

During the EC's meeting on the economic agenda, Kahanec stressed a need for brave EU leadership:

"Europe is in a trap of fiscal, monetary, trade, demographic, and regional imbalances. An innovation deficit hinders economic growth."

We would like to invite you to a national seminar on the effectiveness of social dialogue in the framework of the project Enhancing the Effectiveness of Social Dialogue Articulation (EESDA).

In this call, 11 InGRID-2 data centres, including CELSI, offer access to data and expertise within the field of inclusive growth, poverty, living conditions, working conditions, vulnerable groups, social policy, etc.

CELSI has welcomed more than 15 research visitors within Horizon-2020 InGRID-2 project. On 7-8. March 2019, more than 30 experts and advocates of research data in social sciences gathered to discuss the gaps in research infrastructures in Central and Eastern Europe. On 10-11 October 2019, CELSI organized the WageIndicator Data Forum focused on pooling data.

CELSI organised the regional kick-off workshop of the COLBAR-EUROPE project (EUROPE wide analyses of COLlective BARgaining agreements, project No. VS/2019/0077, led by the Wage Indicator Foundation) in Bratislava on 9 October 2019.

Your response will help us better understand the use of data for research purposes and enable us to formulate recommendations regarding the gaps in access to, coverage of, and reliability of the available datasets.

We would like to inform you, that the article of our research fellow Lucia Mýtna Kureková, "The automotive industry in central Europe: A success?", is today’s featured article for the IZA World of Labor!
