The European Centre completed the 2021 updates of the six reviews of the Western Balkan countries regarding the European Pillar of Social Rights. The European Centre team worked with country experts to create high-quality reports to monitor the countries’ achievements and reform efforts of social rights as candidate and potential candidate countries. This year, the European Centre also prepared a comparative overview report. Within the framework of the Employment and Social Affairs Platform 2 (ESAP 2) project that is implemented by the Regional Cooperation Council (RCC) and funded by the EU, the European Centre was also engaged as the international expert organization in the reviews prepared in 2018/19 and coordinated the 2020 reviews.
