Social Rights Monitor 2020 and Country Reports

We are proud to present the second edition of SOLIDAR’s Social Rights Monitor that provides an insight into the state of social rights in different European countries. This edition reports on 14 countries from the European Union – Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Slovakia, Spain and the Netherlands; two candidate countries – Serbia and North Macedonia; and one member that left the EU in 2020, the United Kingdom.

The 2020 Monitor assesses the state of social Europe in terms of equality of opportunities, fair working conditions, social protection, inclusion and civic space. It does so on the basis of observations of National Strategy Groups (NSG) set up in each of the 17 countries by a SOLIDAR member or partner. These groups pool the expertise of civil society organisations, academics and experts in the field and support this with statistical data and scientific findings.

You can currently download the full version of the monitor and the 17 country-specific reports separately (see our Downloads section on the right - or below if you browse on a mobile device).

Translations to many of our members’ languages are also avaliable.
