Millions of workers and children are exploited in global supply chains.

An effective #DueDiligence Directive can have a massive impact on this.

We call on member states to end the blockage and adopt the directive, without watering it down!

#CSDDD

[Workers' Group EESC @WorkersEESC]

👉📢End the blockage! The @EUCouncil must approve the #PlatformWork and the #DueDiligence & #CorporateSustainability directives

The lives and working conditions of hundreds of millions will be affected by them.

[Séamus Boland @EESC_President]

Europe must keep its credibility ahead #EP24 & lead the way to a sustainable & inclusive economy.

We need strong rules to safeguard human rights in the supply chain & for fair treatment of #PlatformWorkers.

I urge MSs to unblock these crucial files.

#PlatformWork #DueDiligence

[Thomas Wagnsonner @ThomasWagEESC]

@EESC_President The EESC President is totally right with his call on the MSs, especially to the German Finance Minister, to abstain their veto on the CSDDD. The CSDDD and the PWD will guaranty decent work for millions of deprived workers.

[Thomas Wagnsonner @ThomasWagEESC]

I strongly ask the European authorities to support this claim toward the Israel government.

[Thomas Wagnsonner @ThomasWagEESC]

This february, I met the most competent and engaged representatives of @itachmaaki in Tel Aviv. Together with other #humanrights & #civilsociety NGOs from Israel they launched an “emergency call” to stop the forcible transfer of Palestinian communities in the West Bank. @EESC_REX

During our participation in the conference on "#Climatechange and #migration in the Mediterranean" in Alicante, the #EESC Euromed Follow-up Committee published a statement on the current situation in #Israel.

[Thomas Wagnsonner @ThomasWagEESC]

We are here in Alicante to discuss the most important issues of #Climatechange and #migration in the #Mediterranean with our Partners from Spain, Jordan, Libanon, Morocco, France, Portugal and Mauritania.

[Thomas Wagnsonner @ThomasWagEESC]

I condemn the military escalations between Hamas and #Israel and ask for immediate ceasefire. I’m deeply concerned for the #civilians affected. I call for restraint and de-escalation and for peaceful negotiations on a two-state solution for both sides.

Oye @policia , ¿es legal grabar sin consentimiento y sin tapar las caras de seguridad ni del resto de pasajeros y colgarlo en redes?

[Thomas Wagnsonner @ThomasWagEESC]

A study by the World Resources Institute concludes that an additional 1 billion people will be affected by water stress in 2050. Thus, the REX/570 Water politics - Blue Diplomacy Opinion is of utmost importance! Congratulations to Vardakastanis and Angelova for their great work!

[Civil Society Organisations' Group of the EESC @CSOGroupEESC]

Water is a precious public good and citizens through their civil society organisations should play a major role in protecting it, and that should take the form of a citizens’ movement!

[Thomas Wagnsonner @ThomasWagEESC]

The @WWAttribution ‘s analysis reveals that the global warming increases the likelyhood of flood catastrophes, with the #Mediterranean region as a Hotspot of climate change-related hazards. We need to stop the #climatecrisis immediately!

We are shocked about the many victims in Morocco. Our hearts are with them! In 2022 we were in Marrakesh with the EUROMED Summit and enjoyed the great hospitality there. On behalf of the EUROMED FuC, I ask all EU institutions and member states to support the people in the region.

[Thomas Wagnsonner @ThomasWagEESC]

Our thoughts are with the victims of the floods in Greece and Bulgaria. We support the proposal of EP-VP Katarina Barley to provide aid from the EU Solidarity Fund. These are signs to take the #climatecrisis seriously and to finally fight it effectively !

Fighting the #climatecrisis could offer advantages to Europe and the North African countries in cooperating to produce green energy. This really needs to be at eye level so that Europe and our partner countries in #NorthAfrica can really benefit from a win-win situation.@EESC_REX

[Thomas Wagnsonner @ThomasWagEESC]

The EESC's opinion REX/570 “Opinion on Water Politics: Between Desertification and Securitization - Time for a Blue Diplomacy" is therefore just in time.

The World Resources Institute predicts that by 2050, an additional billion people will live in arid regions with high water stress, with the #MiddleEast and #NorthAfrica having the highest levels.
