On 19 April 2024, the European Alliance for Apprenticeships (EAfA) hosted a webinar, entitled 'Journey to sustainability – the role of apprenticeships in supporting tourism and hospitality'. Tourism plays a significant role in the EU economy, contributing to over 10% of its GDP and employing around 20 million people. However, the sector faces several challenges in its transition to sustainability. It is also grappling with workforce shortages and lower qualifications compared to the EU average. The webinar ‘Journey to sustainability: the role of apprenticeships in supporting tourism and hospitality’ will bring together experts, social partners, industry stakeholders and representatives from the European Commission to explore how apprenticeships can support the sectors’ transition towards sustainability.

On World Immunisation Week, as we reflect on the lifesaving impact of vaccines worldwide, the Chief Medical Officer is asking you to check that you and your children are up to date with your vaccines. See https://www.immunisation.ie/ Vaccines protect us all. #EveryDoseCounts TRANSCRIPT: This week is World Immunisation Week, an opportunity to reflect on the importance of our vaccination programmes which protects us against serious diseases. Globally, in the past 50 years, vaccines have saved almost 154 million lives. That’s six people every minute for five decades. Vaccinations have eradicated smallpox, reduced polio by 99% and reduced infant deaths by 40%. And they are evolving all the time. Now, we have a new vaccine that can prevent cancers and we hope to eliminate cervical cancer by 2040. In Ireland, the childhood immunisation programme provides children with a range of vaccines, including the MMR vaccine. This is particularly important now, as measles cases have increased in Ireland in recent months, so please get your vaccine if you are eligible. We have also seen an increase in pertussis or whooping cough. So, I strongly recommend all pregnant women to get your free vaccine which offers vital protection for newborn babies in those first few months. In the past few years, with the emergence of COVID, we've seen how new vaccines are incredibly effective in reducing the risk of serious illness and death. This week, I want to remind all those aged 80 years or over and others who are eligible to top up your protection with the COVID Spring booster. I'd also like to remind parents of first year children that some routine vaccines are being offered by school vaccination teams, so keep an eye out for the HSE Consent Pack in your child's schoolbag. We get vaccinated not just for ourselves and for our children, but to protect those around us too. If you want to know more about vaccinations available for you and your family, go to immunisation.ie And remember, every dose counts. Thank you.

Despite high-level visits by American and Chinese officials, trade tensions between the two countries continue to escalate. Relations with the European Union are also tense, as Brussels prepares for possible tariffs on electric vehicles and seeks to apply a more coherent “de-risking” strategy vis à vis China. How is all this viewed in Beijing? What are China's short- and medium-term trade strategies? How does China want to strengthen the World Trade Organization (WTO)? How is the Chinese economy actually doing? And what preparations are Chinese officials making for the possible outcome of the June parliamentary elections in Europe and the November presidential elections in the United States?

Ahead of the 2024 European Elections, @Eurelectric is calling on incoming policymakers to deliver on the promises of the #greendeal by accelerating #electrification, empowering consumers, and ensuring security of supply. Eurelectric's Head of Distribution & Market Facilitation Savannah Altvater presents the fourth priority of the EU Elections Manifesto, which calls on EU institutions to deliver a new power infrastructure deal. Eurelectric is advocating for an enhanced focus on distribution grids through its #Grids4Speed campaign, which will culminate with the launch of a dedicated study during #PowerSummit24, its annual event gathering Download the Manifesto: https://www.eurelectric.org/publications/repowering-europe-delivering-clean-energy-resilience-manifesto-for-the-2024-2029 Subscribe to our newsletter: https://www.eurelectric.org/newsletters-subscription/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/eurelectric/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/Eurelectric #WePowerEU #Electrification #energysecurity #consumer

In this interview, @Eurelectric 's Vice President and @fortum 's CEO Markus Rauramo, answers questions about Europe's challenge to deliver a reliable supply of electricity, a crucial element to ensure the block's energy security. Why is energy security so important? Modern society needs power. As decarbonisation accelerates, so will the use of clean electricity. It will be present everywhere and this calls for a renewed focus on the security of supply. However, international events in recent years have put our countries’ energy security in jeopardy. Global geopolitical tensions, market interventions, extreme weather, cyber sabotage and increasing power demand are putting energy security at risk. Meanwhile, our national energy systems are evolving with renewable energy sources and technology developments bringing higher variability and growing decentralisation. This necessitates a change in the way we think about the energy system. Yet, European Member States’ present a variety of national and regional situations. Each challenge has its own specificities which reflect the reality on the ground and require tailored solutions that work for unique circumstances.

The European clean energy transition is speeding up. During the 2019-2024 European mandate, extensive regulatory progress has been made in the form of the European Green Deal and through the energy and climate legislative package ‘Fit for 55’. As we enter the implementation phase of these policies, understanding and supporting citizen engagement in the energy transition is becoming more and more important. To this end, the EnergyPROSPECTS project has explored the potential of energy citizenship to contribute to the fulfilment of the EU's climate and energy objectives. Energy citizenship provides a useful lens to capture the diversity of citizen engagement in the energy transition. The concept denotes different forms of civic involvement and engagement in the fields of energy production, distribution, and consumption, as well as in the governance of the energy transition. It can be practised at different levels of action, through different constellations of actors. The clean energy transition is becoming everyone’s business. What does this mean for citizens’ roles in the European energy transition? Building on three years of research with eight other organisations across Europe, our research fellow Karin Thalberg, presents key findings that guide us towards a common framework for citizen involvement in the European energy transition.

NATO’s multinational battlegroup in Hungary is hard at work in the east of the Alliance, keeping NATO ready to deter aggression and, if necessary, defend the Allied territory. The battlegroup is one of four new units established in the wake of Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine in February 2022. Comprised of Croatian, Italian and Turkish troops, with the Hungarian Defence Forces in the lead, the battlegroup conducts military exercises, which boost the level of familiarisation amongst these Allied troops and the effectiveness of working together. NATO’s battlegroups were first established in 2016 in response to the increased instability and insecurity along NATO’s periphery, following a decision made by Allies at the 2016 Warsaw Summit to reinforce the eastern part of the Alliance with battalion-sized multinational units. At the 2022 Madrid Summit, Allies committed to doubling the number of units from four to eight, with new battlegroups deploying to Bulgaria, Hungary, Romania and Slovakia. Allies also committed to deploy troops to rapidly reinforce these battlegroups if need be, up to brigade level. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ SUBSCRIBE to this channel https://bit.ly/NATOsubscribe SUBSCRIBE to NATO News https://bit.ly/NATONewsSubscribe SUBSCRIBE to NATO History https://bit.ly/NATOHistorySubscribe Connect with NATO online: Visit the Official NATO Homepage: https://bit.ly/NATOhomepage Receive NATO updates via email: https://bit.ly/NATOemails Find NATO on FACEBOOK: https://bit.ly/NATOfacebook Follow @NATO on TWITTER: https://bit.ly/NATOtwitter Follow NATO on Instagram: https://bit.ly/NATOinstagram Find NATO on LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/NATOlinkedin Find NATO on Flickr: https://bit.ly/NATOflickr #NATO #OTAN #WeAreNATO

This CEER Customer Conference 2024 served as a comprehensive exploration of recently approved legislation packages and their optimal implementation by EU energy stakeholders. The conference unfolded across three essential pillars – consumer protection, consumer empowerment, and decarbonisation – ensuring a comprehensive and consumer-centric approach to the challenges and opportunities presented by the current energy environment. The three dedicated sessions comprehensively covered electricity, gas, and heating issues, with a sharp focus on implementing and reinforcing consumer rights. Among others, the exploration extended to the concept of energy sharing, underlining collaborative approaches that amplify the impact of individual efforts. Together these topics serve as a compass for navigating the multifaceted landscape of consumer-driven innovation and the imperative to decarbonise residential energy consumption. Discussions also touched upon the CEER-BEUC 2030 ASPIRE Vision for Energy Consumers that envisions a transformative future where consumers not only comprehend the environmental impacts of their energy usage but are also equipped with the tools to independently evaluate the climate properties of various energy products, actions, or behaviours. This forward-looking vision aligns with a sustainable economy that delivers Affordability, Simplicity, Protection, Inclusiveness, Reliability, and Empowerment for all consumers.

Participatory Turns: The bumpy roads to recognition of participatory approaches in the social sciences, and lessons for citizen science The integration of societal participation into the production of scientific knowledge stands as a core principle within citizen science. Although participatory methods have a long tradition in the social sciences — exemplified by participatory action research in fields like sociology, education, and anthropology — a historical examination unveils the intricacies and obstacles tied to these methods' acceptance and application. Historically, participatory research often found recognition only on the fringes of academic discourse, encountering structural and power-related barriers. Moreover, the demarcation between political engagement and social science research was a recurring dilemma.

The Challenge of Continuous Adaptation: Citizen Science for a Changing World We’re at an unprecedented moment in human history. Technology is outpacing policy, transformations through open science have yet to become mainstream, climate change and the loss of biodiversity speed along faster than solutions. But the human ability to thrive in the face of adversity means there is hope. The fundamentals of citizen science can offer us ways forwards in this era of discontinuity – what is essential and what new approaches do we need to embrace?

Parliament members will discuss Iran’s unprecedented attack on Israel, the need for de-escalation in the region and the appropriate EU response. The debate will be followed by a resolution which will be voted on the following day after the debate on 25 April. Parliament President Roberta Metsola described Iran’s direct drone and missile attack on Israel on 20 and 21 April as a major escalation in the region and warned it risks igniting further chaos across the Middle East.

Parliament will discuss in a plenary debate the EU’s response to the repeated killing of humanitarian aid workers, journalists and civilians by the Israel Defence Forces in Gaza. In March, Parliament adopted a resolution warning about the desperate food insecurity and impending starvation in Gaza. Members of the Parliament deplored the catastrophic impact of attacks on humanitarian aid deliveries and civilians in Gaza, particularly on children, urged all parties to immediately cease these attacks, and demanded an independent international investigation.
