EU, unemployment and globalisation

This synthesis by Virginie Timmerman shows the key issues of the debate organised by Notre Europe – Jacques Delors Institute and the European Movement France on 25 November 2013 in Albi, about “Globalisation and unemployment: EU’s challenges”.

Three major issues were pointed out:

  1. Employment, social and fiscal harmonisation for a healthier inter-European competition;
  2. Globalisation, uniting to compete with the outside world on an equal footing;
  3. 25 May 2014, choosing your European Union.

On this occasion, citizens were able to share their questions and opinions with:

  • Anne LAPPEROUZE, president of the Mouvement Européen – France – Tarn,
  • Yves BERTONCINI, director of Notre Europe – Institut Jacques Delors,
  • Daniel ECLACHE, company director and chair of MEDEF – Tarn,
  • Jean-Louis HORMIERE, the president of Chambre de commerce et des métiers du Tarn (Chamber of trade and skills),
  • Antoine JANKOWSKI, the honorary Polish consul in Toulouse.
