Active labour market policies for the EU2020-strategy: ways to move forward
28 - 29 October 2010
Antwerp, Belgium
An ageing population, current and future job shortages and harsh financial conditions all call for new ways to move forward. The methods we choose today will be decisive for labour market dynamics in 2020 and beyond.During the congress the organizers would like to engage with all participants in order to:
• explore ways of making current and future ALMPs in the EU more measurable and evidence-based. The conference will stress the importance of evaluation methods and impact assessment in the field of ALMPs.
• identify and understand the most effective ALMP measures, based on recent evaluation and policy practices, and to draw lessons from these practices. The conference will elaborate on what works (and what doesn’t) in the broad field of ALMPs.
• discuss how to implement and design future ALMP measures within the framework of the Europe 2020 strategy. The aim is to contribute to the implementation of new employment guidelines, benchmarks and indicators for the Europe 2020 strategy.
