Please note that this meeting is for EASPD members only

 

The European Elections in 2024 brought significant changes to the EU institutions, national and regional elections have also a role to play in this. With a new European Parliament and European Commission now in place EU’s priorities for the next five years are shifting, requiring us to adapt our advocacy strategies.

Join us for this online discussion, accessible only to members of EASPD, to discuss the new political landscape, what it means for disability policies, what are key priorities to follow during this new mandate and how we can effectively engage with decision-makers in this new context.
