Holding EU corporations accountable for alleged human rights abuses in third countries remains challenging. Barriers and opportunies vary between EU Member States. The study provides an in-depth analysis of 12 cases in EU courts, identifying legal, procedural and practical obstacles victims face.

The Ambient Air Quality Directive (2008/50/EC) provides for air quality monitoring at fixed sites as a key tool.

Scientific literacy goes beyond the mere knowledge of scientific content. It is the ability to engage critically with and make informed decisions about science-related issues. European societies are faced with emerging threats relating to the spread of disinformation and pseudo-science. In this context, fostering scientific literacy can provide people with tools to navigate and critically address the vast amounts of information exchanged in public debate, and support democratic processes.

Gender responsive EU budgeting

BUDG 15-04-2019 - 17:18

This study investigates whether, and to what extent, progress has been made in gender budgeting in the EU since the publication of the 2015 Study. It finds that the absence of overall and consistent commitment to gender equality in the EU budget and the budgetary process continues. As a result, it calls on the EC, EP and Council to take legislative action to anchor gender equality to all policies that receive funding from the EU budget.
