"Low carbon energy sources are making unexpected revenues, which do not reflect their production costs.

It is now time for consumers to benefit from the low costs of low carbon energy sources, like renewables."

— Statement by President @vonderleyen on energy

Around 52 million Europeans provide informal long-term care to family or friends.

Almost 90% of the formal care workforce are women.

Conditions to attract workers - in particular men - must be improved to avoid future labour shortages in the care sector.

With an ageing population, people in need of long-term care are expected to increase by 23.5% in 2050.

To tackle future challenges, we recommend EU countries to draw up action plans to make care more available, accessible and of better quality for all.

We propose that EU countries revise ‘the Barcelona targets’ on early childhood education and care.

Investing in high-quality care means improving gender equality and enhancing women’s participation in the labour market.

Investing in care is an investment in gender equality and social fairness.

Today, we present the European Care Strategy to ensure quality and accessible care across 🇪🇺.

It will positively impact millions of children, older people and those who cares for them.

Russia is an unreliable supplier and is manipulating our energy markets.
