EU - Renew Europe calls for a full-fledged EU skills agenda at the heart of Europe

PRESS RELEASE Press & Communication Service 29.06.2020 Renew Europe calls for a full-fledged EU skills agenda at the heart of Europe Ahead of this week’s presentation of the European Commission’s “Updated Skills Agenda for Europe”, the Renew Europe group adopted its Position Paper on Skills, outlining its vision and a set of actions on how the EU can help empower people to learn, develop and adapt their skills, especially with a view to the digital and green transition. MEPs of Renew Europe call for a new skills agenda at the very heart of Europe and put forward concrete proposals on how to upscale digital but also entrepreneurial skills, how to identify trends and strategic sectors as well as how to foster inclusiveness and facilitate the recognition and portability of skills within Europe.  MEP Ilana CICUREL, Member of the Committee on Culture and Education and Substitute of the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs, said:   “With this Position Paper, we in Renew Europe are ready to stand by European citizens, to defend their right to a quality and inclusive education. Europe must draw on exchange of best practice, pedagogical research, and market intelligence to adapt our education and training to the socio-economic challenges of our time. Informal and digital skills have proven to be more essential than ever. I want to fight for the recognition and portability of our professional skills across the continent. A European Apprenticeship Statute is a flagship measure. Our Union should invest in making us an educational power. For its young and older people to prosper. No one should be left standing by the road.”  MEP Laurence FARRENG, Coordinator of the Committee on Culture and Education, added:  "Young people are already the most affected by unemployment, and will be even more so in the coming crisis. We have to act now, later will be too late. We must prepare them for the skills of tomorrow, while preserving our traditional skills at the same time. Digital skills and the Green Deal must be at the heart of our strategy."  MEP Dragoș PÎSLARU, Coordinator of the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs, commented:   “For Europe to remain a world leader in science and technology, trade and development, but also human rights and welfare, we need to master the digital revolution. Digital education and skills, but also updated vocational training, must be one of our core objectives in the foreseeable future and I am proud that Renew Europe is at the forefront of this debate.” Note to editors: The Renew Europe position paper “Skills at the heart of Europe” is available here.

Grootste olieramp ooit aan de noordpool en ander nieuws van #Greenpeace

Als de afbeeldingen in deze e-mail niet correct worden weergegeven, lees hem dan online.     Klimaatcrisis: droogte en waterschaarste Het voorjaar was kurkdroog. Op veel plaatsen staat het grondwater historisch laag. Als ook de zomer heet en droog wordt, dreigt er zelfs een tekort aan drinkwater. Hitte, droogte en onweersbuien zijn onze klimaatcrisis. Eis actie van onze regeringen en parlementen →         Foto’s voor een rechtvaardigere samenleving Je hebt ze misschien gezien: vorige zondag waren er reusachtige portretten opgesteld op de esplanade van de Financietoren in Brussel. Met deze actie eist het middenveld een rechtvaardigere samenleving in de nasleep van de coronacrisis. Wil je meer weten? Lees meer →         Bescherm de wonderen van de diepzee Vorige week was er in de kamer een openbare hoorzitting over diepzeemijnbouw. De stemming zal waarschijnlijk pas na de zomer plaatsvinden. Als deze industrie groen licht krijgt, betekent dat de vernietiging van de diepzee en het spectaculaire leven op de oceaanbodem. Zeg NEE tegen deze destructieve activiteit →         Grootste olieramp ooit in het noordpoolgebied In juni trof een olieramp het Russische noordpoolgebied. Qua omvang is de ramp vergelijkbaar met die van olietanker Exxon Valdez in Alaska, dertig jaar geleden. Er is duidelijk meer controle nodig van de oliebedrijven aan de noordpool. Daarnaast moeten we dringend afstappen van fossiele brandstoffen. Lees meer over deze tragedie →         Ontbossing in Amazonewoud neemt weer toe In het Amazonegebied zijn zelfs natuurreservaten niet veilig voor houtkap en veeteelt. Uit onderzoek van onze Braziliaanse collega’s blijkt dat vlees uit recent ontboste gebieden ook naar Europa wordt verscheept. Aanklagen is niet genoeg, we ijveren voor oplossingen. Ontdek wat Greenpeace →         Consultatie over kernafval is afgelopen. Wat nu? Onlangs kon je je mening geven over de plannen van NIRAS, de nationale instelling voor kernafval. Er schortte heel wat aan de consultatie, van de slechte timing tot het ontbreken van cruciale informatie over hoe, waar en wanneer ons hoogradioactief kernafval moet worden opgeslagen.
