The European Trade Union Confederation (ETUC) has launched a campaign for A New Path for Europe.
The campaign aims at driving the European Union in a new direction. Instead of sticking with failed policies, European leaders need to fight for a new path, a plan based on investments in sustainable growth and quality jobs. If not, we will continue to see unemployment rise. Social Europe must not be destroyed.
EUROPEAN DEMONSTRATION
As part of the campaign, a European demonstration has been called in Brussels on 4 April 2014.

ETUC MANIFESTO
In addition, the ETUC set-outs its manifesto (Leaflet) for the European Parliament elections, which urges candidates uphold the social dimension of the European Union, and reject any attempts to continue polices that diminish wages and working conditions.
