Presentation transcript:

+ Policy learning: the helicopter view Agnes Uhereczky Tallinn, 19 th September 2014

+ Family policy landscape

+ Categorisation of regions/countries

+ Seeing in a different light The notion of pressure in a field, which is not EU competence Not wanting to be on the bottom of the list One-way transfer (was Sweden interested in learning something from Germany?) Reciprocity – Mutual learning – Best practices (don’t seem to work) Childcare – only mention costs, any cost-benefit analyses done? Social investment paradigm? Why not reinvent the wheel? Political ambition – voters? Economy? Very individual national contexts!

+ Some more questions: Role of the European Parliament, MEPs, Council, Perm Reps? Family ministers – women versus men (gender element) Lobby/pressure groups (conservative vs. lefty/green/women) Were there structured dialogue events, citizens’ consultations or stakeholder consultations? The needs of families – and the need for families to plan ahead (university studies, jobs, grandparents, moving)

+ More points Hungary – Austria case of inspiration for the “GYED Extra”, but not for extending the childcare coverage, especially U3 Poland: new system inspired by Sweden UK and France – shared parental leave (very different reactions and reasons for opposing) Why Sweden, and not Finland or the Netherlands? Leading us towards a more and more uniform system? (Labour market mobility needs to become family mobility)

+ EU level parallel developments 2007 German Presidency: Alliance for European Families DG EMPL – Unit D4 Demography Belgian Presidency 2010 – Child poverty recommendation FP7 – strong family policy priority (Family Platform, now Families and Societies) 2011 Hungarian and Polish Presidencies – strong focus on family 2012 – new Director and Director General at DG EMPL: dismantling unit D4, Defamilialisation of family policy (Mary Daly), re-creation of EPIC, focus on investing in children Social Investment package – long-term care as much attention!
