EHRC Response to the European Commission consultation on the Future 'EU2020 Strategy'

On 24 November 2009, the European Commission launched a consultation on the EU’s economic and social strategy for the next ten years (the EU2020 Strategy). The strategy will establish how the European Union should address the economic, social, and environmental challenges facing Europe through a partnership between the Member States of the EU.


In response to this, the EHCR has drafted a position paper, based upon its own human rights strategy. The EHRC believes that the EU’s strategy for the next 10 years must ensure that equality and human rights are at the core of all its policies.
