The social investment approach in Western Balkan & Eastern Partnership countries

At the 5th BBinar on ‘the Social Investment Approach in Western Balkan and Eastern Partnerhsip countries’ on June 13, 2023 about 40 stakeholders from international organisations, ministries, civil society, NGOs, universities, and research institutes throughout the UNECE region came together to discuss what role the social investment approach to social welfare policies can and should play in supporting sustainable development in the Western Balkan and the Eastern Partnership countries. There was agreement among the invited experts that inclusive growth requires both well-designed and targeted social investment policies as well as social protection systems. The BBinar further provided an opportunity for exchanges between representatives of organisations in the region with the panel and the Austrian social attaché in Skopje, Harald Fugger.
