29 October 2025, UN Day of Care and Support

The European Care Alliance – which has supported implementation of the European Care Strategy since its inception – calls on the EU legislators to clearly earmark funding for social and care policies under the next 7-year EU budget (2028-2034). Namely through explicit mention of the European Care Strategy in the NRP regulation and European Social Fund regulation, and through greater clarity in the MFF package on allocation of funding for social and care objectives.
