The European Commission recently launched a new consultation on the Roadmap for a new initiative – the Child Guarantee- on ensuring basic services for all children in need in Europe. The consultation runs until 7 October 2020.

To find out what the Child Guarantee is about, the potential of the initiative – particularly interesting for large families – and its possible implications, ELFAC has organized a training webinar on Thursday 17 September at 11.00 a.m. CEST in which you are invited to participate by connecting here: https://meet.google.com/vzp-dykx-xyi

Introduced by Kinga Joo – vice president NOE and member of the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) – the meeting will be attended by Hugh Frazer, coordinator of the team that drafted the Feasibility Study for the European Union.

You are all invited to participate and ask questions to the speaker, a unique opportunity to understand the first European initiative aimed at supporting children in a Europe where 1/4 of children are at risk of poverty and social exclusion.
