8^th European Regional Meeting

The 8^th European Regional Meeting (ERM) will provide the space for governments and worker and employer organisations, from across Europe and Central Asia, to come together and shape the ILO's future strategy in the European and Central Asian member countries of the ILO. Two highlights of the 8^th ERM will be a high level panel discussion with Prime Ministers from several European countries and representatives from worker and employer organisations, in addition to an informal ministerial meeting. The ILO would like to thank the Portuguese government for kindly hosting and co-funding the 8^th European Regional Meeting.
