Prof.
Stiglitz: NextGenEU was a leap forward, but the EU needs more flexibility
The NextGenEu Eurobonds issuance by the European Commission “was a very important step forward”, the Nobel Laureate in Economics Prof. Joseph E.

The interview was held in the framework of the talk co-organised by FEPS, the Initiative for Policy Dialogue (IPD) at Columbia University, and the Jean-Jaurès
Foundation âThe 20 years of the Euroâ.

The politics of care
🎙ī¸To explore the different care inequalities that directly feed into gender imbalances across all spheres of life, Labour MP for Birmingham and Shadow Minister Jess Phillips is interviewed by Laeticia Thissen (FEPS Policy Analyst for
Gender Equality).
Building on the realities made evident by the EU Care Atlas â by FEPS and the Friedrich-Ebert Stiftung â and the
complex relationship between motherhood and equality, this podcast focuses on how care deficits permeate into various other gender gaps, including politics. It explores how female politicians have a central role in changing conventional ways of doing politics and in shifting the priorities towards a care-oriented society.
