Dear Madam/Sir,
Dear Colleagues,

The SUSODCO project, which was launched in March 2020, brings together the national social partners of the construction sector from Central (Slovenia, Hungary), South-East (Croatia, Bulgaria) and Southern Europe (Cyprus, Greece). Its main objective is to enhance the communication skills and capacities of the participating partners for an improved and effective social dialogue through the exchange of good practices, awareness raising on key social dialogue issues and the organisation of seminars.

During the Final Conference, the project partners will present the results of the national project campaigns and possible future trends for Social Dialogue. The European partners will share their experiences of the Social dialogue at European level and the SUSODCO platform will be launched officially. We will also try to explore how to proceed in the future with the Social Dialogue. 

Meeting modalities:
The Conference will take place in a (limited) hybrid form, i.e. both online (unlimited number) and with physical presence (limited to maximum 10 persons and restricted to representatives of the project partners only). Project partners who plan to be physically present can indicate this in the registration form. Should the quota of 10 persons be exceeded, then the EFBWW and the project partners will make a selection. Please wait for confirmation of your participation by the EFBWW before making any travel reservations.

  • The partners have successfully launched the project in March 2020

    The consoritum had our first, kickoff meeting through the online tool Teams, on March 30 and 31 2020. Through events like this we get to know each other better, we are strengthening our mutual trust and we make foundations for a fruitful future cooperation.
    During the meeting we have reviewed the social dialogue (SD) activities on national levels and exchanged our opinions. We have made concrete plans for our future tasks. We have started our preparatory activities – national social dialogue capacity researches, covering current issues and trends in sectoral SD and comparison with sectoral multiannual SD action plan. We are going to perform 4 such joint researches – 3 desk and 1 field research, which will be followed by 4 thematic reports.
