De EU zet zich in voor de voortdurende verbetering van leermogelijkheden en wil onderwijsuitdagingen aanpakken. Zo moet het initiatief voor de Europese Onderwijsruimte zorgen voor een meer onderling verbonden onderwijssysteem. De voornaamste doelstellingen van dit initiatief zijn onder meer betere samenwerking en meer mobiliteit in het onderwijs en het opzetten van inclusieve onderwijsstelsels. Een van de belangrijkste aandachtspunten is het wegnemen van belemmeringen voor leermobiliteit voor scholieren, studenten en opvoeders.

EU leaders met&nbsp;for a European Council summit on 23-24 March 2023. The main items on the agenda were&nbsp;the ongoing war in Ukraine, the competitive of the European single market and the economy, as well as energy prices and logistics.

In the conclusions the leaders stated that the European Union stands firmly and fully with Ukraine and will continue to provide strong political, economic, military, financial and humanitarian support to Ukraine and its people for as long as it takes.

The European Union and Member States are increasing their efforts to help meet Ukraine’s pressing military and defence needs. The European Council welcomed&nbsp;the agreement in the Council to urgently deliver ground-to-ground and artillery ammunition to Ukraine and, if requested, missiles, including through joint procurement and the mobilisation of appropriate funding including through the European Peace Facility.

“We need to strengthen our solidarity with Ukraine, and boost Europe’s investments and competitiveness”, said&nbsp;&nbsp;European Parliament President Roberta Metsola at the European Council.&nbsp;Peace must remain the ultimate goal and the EU is uniquely placed to help that. But in order for there to be peace there must be a Ukraine. And there will not be without our support.”, she added.

European Council, 23-24 March 2023

EU heads of state or government met&nbsp;in Brussels to discuss the most pressing policy priorities for the European Union.

During the meeting&nbsp;on 29-30 June the discussions&nbsp;focused on recent developements&nbsp;in Russia's war against Ukraine, including the destructive impact of the Nova Kakhovka dam's destruction over the Dnipro river&nbsp;and the significant humanitarian and ecological consequences it caused.&nbsp;

The European Council reiterated&nbsp;its resolute condemnation of Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine.&nbsp;&nbsp;The European Union will continue to provide strong financial, economic, humanitarian, military and diplomatic support to Ukraine and its people for as long as it takes. The European Council reconfirmed&nbsp;the EU’s readiness to provide sustainable military support to Ukraine for as long as it takes, notably through the EU Military Assistance Mission and the European Peace Facility.

The European Council condemned&nbsp;in the strongest terms the deliberate destruction of the dam at the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant, which has devastating humanitarian, ecological, agricultural and economic repercussions and puts at risk the safety and security of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant.

European Council, 29-30 June 2023

Jean-Claude Juncker, de Voorzitter van de Europese Commissie, zal op 12 september 2018 zijn toespraak over de Staat van de Unie houden.

Ieder jaar houdt de voorzitter van de Europese Commissie voor het Europees Parlement in september een toespraak over de Staat van de Unie, waarin hij de balans van het voorbije jaar opmaakt en de prioriteiten voor het komende jaar presenteert. De voorzitter zet daarin ook uiteen hoe de Europese Commissie wil inspelen op de grootste uitdagingen voor de Europese Unie. Op de toespraak volgt een plenair debat.

Staat van de Unie 2018

Antonio TAJANI was elected President of the European Parliament on 17 January 2017.

The President represents Parliament in its international relations, and, in this connection, undertakes official visits within and outside the EU.

Antonio TAJANI, EP President's agenda - December 2018

The names of the five EU Ombudsman candidates for the next five-year term (2019-2024) are: Giuseppe Fortunato, Julia Laffranque, Nils Muižnieks, Emily O’Reilly and Cecilia Wikström.

The Ombudsman is elected by the Parliament for the duration of a parliamentary term from a list of nominees, each supported by at least 40 MEPs from at least two Member States.The procedure then provides for a possible hearing of candidates, the drawing up of a list of admissible candidates and a vote by secret ballot. The successful candidate must receive a majority of votes, and there is provision for further votes if no candidate is elected during the first two ballots, and the appointment of the oldest of the two remaining candidates in case of a tied vote. The Parliament can also vote to dismiss the Ombudsman in case of misconduct, upon request of a tenth of MEPs, and will ask the Court of Justice for a ruling on his dismissal if the Ombudsman refuses to resign.

The right to health, including sexual and reproductive health, is protected internationally.&nbsp;Access to sexual and reproductive healthcare goods and services is a fundamental component of sexual and reproductive rights.

Under international human rights law and standards, European Union Member States should ensure access to safe and quality sexual and reproductive healthcare.

A range of United Nations (UN) treaties ban discrimination in general terms, effectively outlawing discrimination in sexual and reproductive health and rights. These rights include the right to health and the right to family planning, equal access to service, freedom from violence and the right to life. Specific international treaty protections exist to combat discrimination on the grounds of sex, race, disability but not sexual orientation or gender identity.

At European level, the Council of Europe protects sexual and reproductive health and rights through the European Convention on Human Rights and through the Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence (the Istanbul Convention).

Sexual and reproductive health and rights

During November plenary MEPs approved&nbsp;the deal on next year’s EU budget that addresses the fallout from the Ukraine war and the pandemic recovery process more effectively. The proposal prioritise recovery, health, youth and climate action.

MEPs wanted&nbsp;the 2023 EU budget to be a “future-oriented budget that matches the Union’s political priorities of ensuring a stronger Health Union, making a success of the green and digital transitions, and fostering a fair, inclusive, sustainable and resilient recovery, including increased support for small and medium-sized enterprises. Next year’s budget should also invest in promoting the rule of law, EU values, and fundamental rights and their application, as well as contribute to greater opportunities for all, most notably young people, and ensure a stronger Union as a foreign policy actor".

Parliament fought for and obtained better support - over €1 billion on top of the Commission’s original proposal - for tackling the consequences of the war in Ukraine, energy, climate and the recovery from the pandemic in the 2023 EU budget. The preliminary figures are €186.6 billion in commitment appropriations and €168.7 billion in payment appropriations.

The 27th session of the Conference of the Parties (COP 27) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) will take place from 6 to 18 November 2022 in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt.

Ahead of the UN COP27 Climate Change Conference, MEPs call on the EU and all G20 nations to show leadership and to commit to more ambitious greenhouse gas reduction targets and to limit global warming in line with the Paris agreement. The world is heading towards a 2.7°C temperature increase, far above the Paris Agreement goals of limiting global warming to well below 2°C and pursuing 1.5°C.&nbsp;

Parliament has been pushing for more ambitious EU climate and biodiversity legislation and declared a climate emergency on 28 November 2019.

In June 2021, Parliament adopted the European Climate Law, which transforms the European Green Deal’s political commitment to EU climate neutrality by 2050 into a binding obligation for the EU and member states. It also increases the EU’s target for reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 from 40% to at least 55%, compared to 1990 level.

Parliament is currently negotiating with member states on the “Fit for 55 in 2030 package" in order to enable the EU to reach the more ambitious 2030-target.

COP 27

The European Parliament must approve the ECB’s nominations for Chair and Vice-Chair.

The Executive Board comprises the President, the Vice-President and four other members. They are appointed by the European Council by qualified majority on a recommendation from the Council after it has consulted the European Parliament and the Governing Council. The members’ term of office is eight years and is not renewable (Article 283(2) TFEU and Articles 11.1 and 11.2 of the ECB Statute). The Executive Board is responsible for the current business of the ECB (Article 11.6 of the ECB Statute). It implements monetary policy in accordance with the guidelines and decisions laid down by the Governing Council. It gives the necessary instructions to national central banks. The Executive Board prepares the Governing Council’s meetings.

Mark RUTTE, Dutch Prime Minister, is the seventh EU leader to debate the future of Europe with MEPs and Jean-Claude Juncker, President of the EC, on Wednesday morning.

&nbsp;

The Europeans want the EU to change. This is why the European Parliament is taking the leadership over a reform of the EU.

Parliament set out its vision for the future of Europe in three resolutions voted in plenary session on 16 February 2017. MEPs suggested, among other things:

<ul>
	<li>turning the Council of Ministers into a genuine second legislative chamber, and its configurations into preparatory bodies similar to Parliament’s committees,</li>
	<li>appointing an EU finance minister and giving the EU Commission the power to formulate and give effect to a common EU economic policy, backed up by a euro-area budget, and</li>
	<li>creating a fiscal capacity consisting of the European Stability Mechanism (ESM) and specific additional budgetary capacity for the euro area, funded by its members as a part of the EU budget.</li>

The EU Covenant of Mayors for Climate &amp; Energy brings together thousands of local governments voluntarily committed to implementing EU climate and energy objectives.

The Covenant of Mayors was launched in 2008 in Europe with the ambition to gather local governments voluntarily committed to achieving and exceeding the EU climate and energy targets.

EU Covenant of Mayors

On 10 March 2022, the <a href="https://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-room/20220304IPR24801/three-new-committees-on-pegasus-spyware-foreign-interference-and-covid-19" style="color:blue; text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">European Parliament established</a> a new special committee on the COVID-19 pandemic, composed of 38 members. The committee is set up for a 12-month term, running from the date of its constitutive meeting, and may be extended.&nbsp;

The majority of the special committee’s work will focus on four pandemic-related areas: health; a coordinated response respecting democracy and fundamental rights; the societal and economic impact; and the EU and the world.

The COVI Chair Kathleen Van Brempt said: “Although this pandemic has not yet ended, Europe already finds itself in the next crisis. In the past fifteen years, the EU has weathered a financial crisis, a refugee crisis, a pandemic, and now a war. Through these crises, we saw the EU often lacked the necessary tools to act quickly. We saw member states only agreeing a European response when it was already too late, be it on the joint procurement of medical equipment, a common European migration policy, or the deepening of the Energy Union. This has brought us the European Union we know today: one that can react to crises, but lacks the political mandate to prepare for them.&nbsp;We need to fundamentally change this dynamic. This is exactly what Parliament’s COVI committee will try to achieve: building a Europe that is better prepared for future crises by drawing lessons from the pandemic. Because COVID-19 was also a crisis of rising inequality, of the economy, our democracy &amp; fundamental rights, and of international governance, the COVI committee will consider the impact of the pandemic on all aspects of society."

COVI - Special Committee on the EU's response to the COVID-19 pandemic

The Conference on the Future of Europe is a series of citizen-led debates and discussions that enable people from across Europe to share their ideas and help shape our common European future. The European Citizens´panels are an integral part of the CoFoE.

The European Citizens’ Panel on "EU in the world / Migration" will meet at the European Institute for Public Administration in Maastricht and online to deliver its recommendations. In March, the Panel’s report - on the EU’s self-reliance and stability, its place in the world, and all aspects of migration-related issues - will be debated in a Conference Plenary session.

The panels bring together people from different walks of life. Citizens have been chosen randomly by specialist contractors on behalf of the EU institutions, using methodologies that ensure that they are representative of the EU's diversity in terms of geographic origin, gender, age, socioeconomic background and level of education. Young people between 16 and 25 make up one-third of each panel.

These citizens come up with ideas and recommendations that will feed into the overall Conference deliberations, in particular into the Conference Plenaries, and ultimately into the report on its final outcome. The European Citizens’ Panels kicked&nbsp;off with the first 200-citizen meeting 17-19 of September in Strasbourg.

The first sessions of all four Panels took&nbsp;place on&nbsp;Parliament’s premises in Strasbourg and began&nbsp;working on draft recommendations within each Panel’s remit. This first European Citizens’ Panel focused on a stronger economy, social justice, jobs/education, youth, culture, and sport/digital transformation, based on citizens’ contributions collected from across Europe on a Multilingual Digital Platform, as well as support and presentations from prominent academics. The second European Citizens’ Panel focused&nbsp;on European democracy/values, rights, the rule of law, and security. The third panel´s agenda was&nbsp;climate change, environment and health. The fourth on the EU in the world/migration.

Also, the Panels are meeting in four European academic institutions (Dublin, Florence, Natolin/Warsaw, and Maastricht) to finalise their recommendations so they can be discussed at the Conference Plenary.

From 25-27 February&nbsp;the final European Citizens' Panels covering ‘A stronger economy, social justice and jobs / Education, culture, youth and sport / Digital transformation' was held in Dublin. The recommendations will be debated at the Conference Plenary in early March, alongside recommendations from the Panel on 'EU in the world / migration', and from national panels and events.

European Citizens’ Panels

On Europe Day, the Presidents of the European Parliament, Commission and Council received the final report with proposals to reform the EU. During a closing ceremony  in Strasbourg, President of the European Parliament Roberta Metsola, on behalf of the Council Presidency, President Emmanuel Macron, and President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen received from the Co-Chairs of the Conference Executive Board the final report on the outcome of the Conference.
This one-year journey of discussion, debate and collaboration between citizens and politicians culminated in a report centred around 49 proposals that include concrete objectives and more than 320 measures for the EU institutions to follow up on under nine topics: climate change and the environment; health; a stronger economy, social justice and jobs; EU in the world; values and rights, rule of law, security; digital transformation; European democracy; migration; education, culture, youth and sport. The proposals are based on recommendations made by citizens who met within the European Citizens’ Panels, National Citizens’ Panels and contributed their ideas on the Multilingual Digital Platform.

President of the European Parliament, Roberta Metsola, said: "Citizens - especially young people - are at the heart of our vision for the future of Europe. They have directly shaped the outcome of the Conference. We are at a defining moment of European integration and no suggestion for change should be off-limits. We should not be afraid to unleash the power of Europe to change people’s lives for the better."

Conference on the Future of Europe: closing event

Since the closing ceremony of the Conference on the Future of Europe on 9 May, the focus has been&nbsp;on the follow-up process. Under the Joint Declaration, the three EU institutions undertook to examine swiftly how to follow up effectively to the final report of the Conference, each within their own sphere of competences and in accordance with the Treaties.

The CoFoE feedback event aims to update citizens on the outcome of the Conference, following the&nbsp;bottom-up exercise for Europeans to have their say on what they expect from the European Union.

Het Europees Parlement bevordert het gebruik van hernieuwbare energiebronnen met nieuwe, ambitieuze streefcijfers die de EU dichter bij het bereiken van de klimaatdoelstellingen brengt. De EU wil haar burgers in het middelpunt van de energietransitie houden door zelfverbruikers te beschermen, energie-efficiëntie te steunen en te ijveren voor een schoner transport.

Nieuwe EU-doelstellingen voor hernieuwbare energie

Een nieuw stel Europese regels streeft naar een daling van het gebruik van antibiotica in de veeteelt en de invoer van striktere regels op ingevoerde levensmiddelen, om de verspreiding van antibioticaresistentie te beperken. De overdracht van geneesmiddelenresistentie van dieren naar mensen vormt een ernstige bedreiging voor ons milieu, ons voedsel en onze gezondheid.

Tegen overdracht van geneesmiddelenresistentie van dieren op mensen

Vrouwen met een sterke morele overtuiging spelen telkens de hoofdrol in drie films die meedingen naar de Lux-filmprijs van dit jaar. Sinds 2007 focust de prijs op films die tot de kern van het publieke debat in Europa raken.

Sterke vrouwelijke personages dingen naar de Lux-filmprijs

Op de agenda in Straatsburg: van uitstoot tot audiovisuele regels

Het internet heeft enorme veranderingen gebracht in de manier waarop we kijken naar films, video's en televisieprogramma's.

Op 12 september hield de voorzitter van de Europese Commissie, Jean-Claude Juncker, zijn vierde en laatste toespraak van de Staat van de Unie voor het Parlement in Straatsburg. Hij riep op tot een sterk en verenigd Europa en waarschuwde voor de gevaren van het populisme. Met nog acht maanden voor de boeg tot de Europese verkiezingen, werd in het debat een ambitieus pad uitgestippeld voor de Europese Unie van 27, in Straatsburg.

Het ineenstorten van de Lehman Brothers-bank zorgde voor een wereldwijde schokgolf en gaf de aanzet tot de ergste economische crisis in generaties. Welke lessen zijn er een decennium later geleerd? En wat is er gedaan om te voorkomen dat het opnieuw gebeurt?

Lehman Brothers: 10 jaar later

De Europarlementariërs zullen naar de toespraak van de Staat van de Unie luisteren en erover debatteren, en zullen de toekomst van Europa bespreken met de Griekse premier Alexis Tsipras. Ook op de agenda: auteursrechtwetgeving, de toestand in Hongarije en het Europees Solidariteitskorps.

Op de agenda in Straatsburg: Staat van de Unie en toekomst van Europa

Tegen 2030 alle plastic verpakkingen geschikt maken voor recycling, dat is een van de doelstellingen van een nieuwe strategie die het Europees Parlement nu onderzoekt. De nieuwe maatregelen zullen Europese landen helpen de hoeveelheid van kunststofafval die ze nog produceren te verminderen, en de verwoestende impact op ons milieu, klimaat, gezondheid en economie te beperken.

Een strategie voor plastic in een kringloopeconomie

Hoe kan Europa de uitdaging van langdurige werkloosheid het hoofd bieden? Het Parlement roept op om het thema van langdurige afwezigheid uit de arbeidsmarkt ten gevolge van ziekte op Europees niveau aan te pakken.

Herstellende werknemers terug op de arbeidsmarkt helpen

Van een EU-solidariteitsfonds naar goedkopere telefoongesprekken en de toekomst van Europa: de Parlementsleden hebben veel werk voor de boeg in de tweede helft van 2018. We kijken naar de actuele thema's in het Parlement voor de komende zes maanden.

Ook bijkomende activiteiten zoals milieubescherming en het helpen van migranten zullen deel uitmaken van het programma.
