For example, it is part of and currently co-chairing the Major Groups and Other Stakeholders Coordination Mechanism, which coordinates the inputs from Civil Society Organizations into the SDG process at the global level. The ITUC has also been working with the International Organisation of Employers (IOE) in order to promote the SDGs.

    Communication activities

    Concerning policy implementation, the ITUC’s key policy areas were defined at the last ITUC World Congress in 2022; the related pillars for actions are detailed in the annual ITUC Frontline Campaigns and Pillars for Action (https://www.ituc-csi.org/IMG/pdf/5co-final-statement-en.pdf).
    Public relations and communication activities are directly linked to these pillars.

  • Meetings

    Meetings

    12 meetings found. Download meetings

    The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.

    1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
