SGI Europe signs up to the manifesto for a Green, Just and Democratic European Economy
Today (Tuesday 15th March), SGI Europe joins a coalition of 270+ civil society organisations, think tanks, trade unions and employers supported by
academics from across the European Union to call for fundamental reform of the EU’s fiscal rules. You can find the manifesto of the coalition here.
Upon joining the coalition, Valeria Ronzitti, SGI Europe General Secretary, said:
““Both the COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine urge the EU to accelerate and consolidate the twin transition and to strengthen our strategic autonomy. To face this new post-pandemic and geopolitical reality, we must reform the existing fiscal rules and rethink our economic policy toolkit to enable growth-enhancing productive investments. A stronger Europe is only possible if we manage to outgrow the current crises, reinforce social cohesion and our sense of unity and solidarity.”
