This research forms part of Eurocities’ broader initiative ‘Inclusive Cities for All’, which helps cities deliver the European Pillar of Social Rights at local level.
This is the fourth survey conducted by Eurocities, following surveys in 2018 and 2019, which collected evidence from cities on policies relating to the principles of the European Pillar of Social Rights.
This time the focus of the survey was on principle 11 on childcare and support for children. A Eurocities’ survey reveals that the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on children means these municipal resources are no longer sufficient, and child poverty is on the rise.
