The European Commission has unveiled a comprehensive social package aimed at eradicating poverty and enhancing the rights of persons with disabilities across the EU. The proposal includes the first EU anti‑poverty strategy to end poverty by 2050, a Council recommendation to fight housing exclusion, and communications to strengthen the European Child Guarantee and the 2021‑2030 disability strategy. The package targets 15 million people at risk of poverty by 2030, 1 million homeless, and one‑in‑five adults and children in poverty. Key actions propose quality jobs, income support, pensions, a new legal instrument for the labour‑market‑excluded, a child guarantee card, and a coalition against poverty. For housing, the recommendation pushes social and affordable homes, while disability measures roll out a European Disability Card, parking card, and an alliance for independent living.
