Topics of the conference

Digitalisation is playing an increasingly important role in social and economic life. This includes in social security systems. It plays a key role not only in making a fair transition to a climate-neutral economy. It is the basis for the smooth operation of the internal market and therefore the foundation of Europe's prosperous societies. Against the background of the European Green Deal, the Digital Decade and the European Pillar of Social Rights, the European Commission has opened the discussion on how the necessary transformation process triggered by digitalisation and climate change can be shaped by sustainable, resilient and efficient social protection systems.
