Conference on «Employment in Europe: Prospects and Priorities» Lisbon 8-9 October

The Portuguese Presidency of the Council of the European Union is the two day conference on «Employment in Europe: Prospects and Priorities» which will discuss a decade of implementation of the European Employment Strategy, launched in the Luxembourg Jobs Summit in November 1997. The aniversary should be a critical time for Europe to reflect and evaluate the instruments and policy approaches and their contribution to human development. It is also an opportunity to look ahead and consider the challenges employment policy will face, such as an ageing society and further deepening of global integration.
