Free movement of persons in the recession period. Who is responsible for the vulnerable intra-EU migrants and how does the current economic crisis affect them?
This debate is the first part of the event. It will address a number of questions concerning the impact of the economic crisis on mobility as well as preventing protectionism and xenophobic reactions to the free movement of persons. We hope the Commissioner for Employment, Social Affairs and Equal Opportunities, Mr. Vladimír Špidla will deliver a keynote speech. Given the profile of the speakers, we expect to attract around 200 participants.(source: ec.europa.eu)
