The project’s final conference will take place in Brussels, Belgium on 3 February 2026 and aims to be a key tool for dissemination and incubator for new partnerships for the take-up of PATHS2INCLUDE data in policy and practice.
The aim will be to:
- Present key research findings emerging from the PATHS2INCLUDE research, highlighting key points of vulnerability in different labour market scenarios as well as new knowledge on best practice in labour market inclusion;
- Connect participants working on inclusive labour markets from different perspectives at national and EU level; and
- Discuss how different EU policy and legal frameworks can provide potential solutions to these vulnerabilities, and different scenarios to develop inclusive labour markets for persons in vulnerable situations.
A variety of topics will be discussed related to the labour market inclusion of groups in vulnerable situations, such as reflections on gaps in data, workplace dynamics to prevent discrimination, gender equal labour markets, older workers in vulnerable situations, the impact of digital developments on labour markets, the role of the European Union in shaping inclusive labour markets, and more.
Invitations will be issued to representatives from institutional and non-institutional stakeholders working on inclusive labour markets at national and EU level, namely social partners, CSOs, academics, national stakeholders and the European Commission and Parliament.
Please note that this event is by invitation only.
