What is the European Pillar of Social Rights?
The European Pillar of Social Rights (EPSR) sets out 20 key principles, agreed upon by EU Member States, to achieve sustainable and inclusive societies.
The EU Action Plan on the EPSR sets out actions at European level to turn the principles in concrete actions. It also proposes headline targets for the EU to reach by 2030.
The EPSR sets the aspiration and implementation priorities for a more social Europe for all. A more social Europe paves the way for a healthier Europe. By addressing the underlying determinants of health, the European Pillar of Social Rights can be considered a European Pillar for Health.
