We’ve been on the move non-stop! From the PES Congress in Amsterdam, to S&D Latin America Days at the European Parliament, to discussions on mental health at our HQ, and finally the Fourth Feminist Foreign Policy Ministerial Conference in Paris. At nearly every stop, we launched a new publication offering deeper insights into the topics we explored. Discover more below!

This interactive session explored how governments and civil society can collaborate in a principled, inclusive, and sustainable way to advance Feminist Foreign Policy, by building collaboration rooted in listening and rehumanising one another.

Europe is facing a growing mental health crisis. From digital overload to workplace burnout and addiction, too many people are struggling to stay healthy in systems that make them ill.

In this podcast, leading experts on mental health explore how mental health and wellbeing health must become a cornerstone of European social and economic policy. From the digitalisation of our lives and its psychological toll, to mental health at work and the challenges of addiction and prevention, the conversation calls for a holistic, rights-based approach to build a healthier, more resilient Europe.
