The European Social Policy Network (ESPN) supports the European Commission by providing independent expertise, information, and evaluations on significant national developments related to social inclusion policies, as well as policies on health, long-term care, and social security. In this framework, the research team of EKKE, which is a member of the Network for Greece, is responsible for collecting, processing, and analyzing relevant data and information, as well as preparing a series of thematic reports and evaluation reports for the relevant services of the European Commission.

For the year 2020-21, the expected deliverables include three thematic reports, at least two “Flash Reports,” one report on the European Semester, and one report on developments in social policy and the social situation in Greece.
