Résumé :
|
The COVID-19 pandemic swept across Europe, resulting in unprecedented disruption to social, employment and economic conditions. While there is evidence that EU Member States and the eight non-EU countries covered by this study have taken decisive action to mitigate the socio-economic impact of the crisis,most of the support measures adoptedare temporary in nature; an important question to be addressed is whether or not countries should consider making some of these measures permanent (and, if not, what would be the appropriate speed of phasing out for the various measures). Additionally, the crisis has highlighted wider questions and revealed pre-existing gaps and inequalities across and within countries; these require sustained and continued efforts to pursue reform agendas, strengthening social protection systems and social inclusion policies in the longer term.
