Policy analysis of potential modernised rights for patients in cross-border healthcare
The public policy ideal should be to provide high-quality healthcare to all EU citizens and residents in each Member State, also through cross-border cooperation, that, in turn, incentivises improvements in national healthcare systems. Difficulties in accessing cross-border healthcare become apparent when the coordination of public healthcare systems intersects with the free movement of market (private) healthcare services and goods. Inter alia, this paper presents the current challenges and possible ...
Recognising Senior Rights Across Borders: Exploring a European Senior or Pensioners Card
This briefing explores the potential of a European Senior/Pensioner Card from a human rights perspective. It assesses different design options, particularly regarding eligibility. While such a card could support mobility, participation and access to services, it would need to be embedded in a broader policy approach addressing age discrimination and promoting age-friendly environments across the EU.
Towards a quality jobs act
The European Commission wants to improve the quality of jobs in the EU. Building on its communication on the quality jobs roadmap, it is now preparing a new legislative proposal, the quality jobs act. Taking as a starting point the existing EU rules, it has consulted European social partners on possible further action in five areas: algorithmic management and artificial intelligence (AI) at work; health and safety at work; subcontracting; just transitions; and enforcement and role of social partners ...
Research for HOUS Special Committee – Housing speculation in the EU: Corporate landlords, real estate trusts, abusive speculative behaviour and impacts on prices and transactions
This study examines the growing financialisation of housing in the EU, focusing on the role of institutional investors and corporate landlords in rental housing markets. It identifies two forms of speculation: valuation-driven business models centred on asset appreciation and landlord practices that undermine tenants’ rights and housing security. While the Commission’s European Affordable Housing Plan recognises these challenges, the study argues that more action and EU-level coordination are needed ...

Assessing the third Gender Action Plan (GAP III) as a Foundation for Designing GAP IV: Lessons learned for the Post-2027 Framework
This study assesses GAP III implementation and identifies lessons for GAP IV after 2027. It finds on the one hand GAP III strengthened EU gender mainstreaming through targets, gender analysis, Country-Level Implementation Plans, political dialogue and institutional routines, but on the other hand links to financing, responsibilities, results and accountability remain uneven. GAP IV could preserve this architecture while making gender equality more politically resilient, financially traceable, management-owned ...
Boj proti revščini, socialni izključenosti in diskriminaciji
To poglavje kratkega vodnika pojasnjuje razvoj politik EU za boj proti revščini, socialni izključenosti in diskriminaciji. Konec devetdesetih let prejšnjega stoletja je bil boj proti socialni izključenosti kot cilj politike zapisan v Pogodbah, EU pa je dobila močnejša orodja za boj proti diskriminaciji. Od takrat so bili sprejeti ključni ukrepi, kot so določitev ciljev za zmanjšanje revščine in strategij za njihovo doseganje ter sprejetje protidiskriminacijske zakonodaje.

Mental health of young people in a digital era: Cost of non-Europe report
Youth mental ill-health in the EU-27 is high, rising and increasingly associated with digital environments. This study shows how persuasive platform design, harmful content and emerging AI-mediated interactions amplify offline vulnerabilities in the context of under-resourced, fragmented services and a large 'missing middle' between schools and specialist care. Using seven country case studies and an EU-27 cost model, it estimates that youth mental ill-health will cost about €1.68 trillion over 2024 ...
