On March 31, CESI organised a timely event on the importance of the European Union for workers and citizens in the capital of Hungary.

Trade unionists, academics, and politicians had the opportunity to discuss about the benefits and flaws in the EU, the role of the Union in the living and working conditions of the people, the recent Eurobarometer findings for Hungary, and democratic values.

Among several debates, the participants also discussed about the rule of law in Hungary, challenges for Hungarian public services, the importance of a strong European public service agenda, EU support to national public services in times of crises, and cooperation between Member States in emergency situations.

Finally, the most recent findings of the Eurobarobeter for Hungary were presented giving participants the chance to exchange on the perception of Hungarian citizens towards the EU.

With its “WeEP24” project, CESI wants to contribute to raising citizens’ awareness of the role and democratic values of the European Union by engaging with workers in selected countries to foster debates about democratic participation in the European elections 2024.
