You can watch the open part of the event here in our Youtube channel.

This event took place in Brussels on 30 April afternoon and evening and aimed to reignite the transformative power of social-democratic values in shaping tomorrow’s Europe. A future in which EU policymaking shall put well-being and quality of life first. Led by FEPS in collaboration with Eyes on Europe and the Brussels chapters of the socialist and social democratic parties (PSOE Brussels, PD Brussels, SPD Brussels, PS Brussels, PvdA Brussels, PSD Belgium, and Brussels Labour) it was an occasion to gather inputs to shape the next chapter of the EU social action plan and be impactful in the next EU legislature.
