Following Mark Zuckerberg's announcement that his social media platforms will no longer employ fact-checking, the S&Ds urge Meta to fulfil its obligations under the EU’s Digital Services Act and the Code of Practice on Disinformation. They call on the European Commission to ensure that tech giants like Meta do not undermine the EU’s regulatory framework, in light of the upcoming US administration and potential policy changes driven by the election of Donald Trump.

Alex Saliba, S&D MEP and vice-president for Digital Agenda, said:

“When Mark Zuckerberg announced that Meta would shift its policy on disinformation ­– moving away from fact-checking and towards community notes, similar to what Elon Musk’s X employs – he explicitly referenced the EU’s regulatory efforts to protect users and society.

“He perceives the election of Donald Trump and the upcoming US administration as an opportunity to push back on rules and regulations of US Big Tech companies. With a more lenient approach and less strict content moderation, this policy change raises serious concerns about Meta’s obligations under the EU’s Digital acquis.

“Meta has signed the Code of Practice on Disinformation, and as a Very Large Online Platform under the Digital Services Act, it is required to report every six months on its efforts to combat disinformation. Within the EU, Meta has a legal obligation to take a risk-based approach and mitigate against election manipulation, cyber violence against women and harm to minors.

“Zuckerberg’s announcement frames this policy shift as a return to freedom of expression, but, in Europe, it must be carefully balanced against potential negative side effects.

“The new European Commission, especially vice-president Henna Virkkunen, must hold Meta and other tech giants accountable, preventing them from using the Trump election as a pretext to reset online regulations in the US and globally. The protection of European citizens and society online is at stake, as is the EU’s reputation as a global leader in tech regulation.”

An energy system transitioning to net zero requires more flexibility. Electric vehicles can be a great source of flexibility for Europe’s energy system but their potential remains largely untapped today. Eurelectric together with EY will quantify EVs potential, benefits to the power sector and costs savings for consumers at EVision 2025 on 5-6 March at Autoworld in Brussels.

EVision is our 2-day event entirely dedicated to e-mobility and gathering every year more than 300 people including policymakers, utilities, the automotive sector and e-mobility expert from all over Europe.

This year our panels will discuss:

1. What are the key trends and outlook for European EV adoption?​
2. What is the impact of EVs as a flexible resource on grid stability, renewable energy utilisation, and reduction of peak energy demand?
3. Is the power infrastructure ready for smart charging and V2G?​
4. How to strengthen the energy wallet of consumers?
5. How to safeguard EU industrial competitiveness in the EV Supply Chain?

• Present the key findings of the Public Trust in Tax 2024 survey;
• Explore the correlations between characteristics and attitudes towards tax issues;
• Foster dialogue among policymakers, tax authorities, academics, International Organizations, and the accountancy profession to promote evidence-based reforms in taxation and trust-building initiatives globally.

This year’s TCS European Policy Summit (TEPS 2024) organised by Friends of Europe in collaboration with TCS, will explore how Europe can lead the next industrial revolution and how it can capitalise on its strengths while embracing the potential for digital transformation and innovation. This summit brings together leaders from the public and private sectors in a strategic dialogue through a working dinner and a two-session conference. 

While the EU has been at the forefront of previous industrial revolutions, it now faces record-high public debt and challenges stemming from recent crises, including COVID-19, conflict and energy instability. The Draghi report warns that without a speedy rethink of its industrial and competitiveness policies, Europe is falling behind the US and China. In today’s environment, where innovation in digitalisation and AI outpace policymaking, it is high time for Europe to reflect on its ambitions, current gaps, strengths and establish a new modus operandi for governments and private sector to address these ambitions jointly. The foundation of this new industrial revolution lies primarily in a digital transformation that, if harnessed effectively, can drive resilience and competitiveness by transforming public and private sectors alike. It must be focused on meeting both the economic and environmental demands of tomorrow. 

• What lessons can be learnt from the last mandate and  how are they reflected in the upcoming Commission’s priorities for boosting EU competitiveness? 
• What mechanisms of enhanced collaboration should be put in place to foster sustainable economic growth and competitiveness? 
• In which ways can digitalisation reshape industry and government services to address the current record public-debt? 

If the past four years are anything to go by, we know that crises are what we will need to manage effectively and ahead of time whilst achieving sustainable economic growth and competitiveness. A practical debate on the path to reaching these ambitious goals is the purpose of this summit.

Conference "Connected Minds, Caring Workplaces: Addressing Mental Health in the Digital Era"

Location: European Parliament,Spinelli 3G3, Brussels

Date:December 12th, 2 pm – 4.00 pm

Edenred is pleased to announce the organisation of a conference dedicated to "Connected Minds, Caring Workplaces: Addressing Mental Health in the Digital Era" hosted by MEP Estelle Ceulemans at the European Parliament in Brussels on December 12, 2024. 

The digitalisation of work has brought about significant changes in the workplace while impacting employee mental health. With the rise of remote work and the use of digital tools, employees are facing new challenges such as digital fatigue, blurred boundaries between work and personal life, and the pressure of constant connectivity. While digital technology can support mental health through accessible wellness programs and resources, it also increases the risk of burnout and stress-related conditions.

Edenred, as an official partner of the EU-OSHA campaign “Safe and healthy work in the digital age”, is eager to raise awareness on the challenges raised by the use of digital tools at work. The conference will gather delegates from public authorities, trade unions and employers organisations to explore together the future of work and possible solutions to face its digitalisation.

• Register to the event
• Download the agenda

The conference will be organised around 2 panels.

The first panel will be moderated by Brenda O’Brien, Senior Brussels Liaison Manager of EU-OSHA, and will explore how to shape caring workplaces in Europe in the digital age. Manal Azzi, Team Lead on Occupational Safety and Health at the International Labour Organisation, Ignacio Doreste Hernandez, Senior Advisor at ETUC and Claudia Marinetti, Director of Mental Health Europe (tbc), will provide insights on the emerging needs for employees at the workplace and why it is crucial to address them.
The second panel will be moderated by Amal Chevreau, Acting Head of Unit of the Social Economy and Innovation Unit at the OECD, and will focus on the “business case” for investing in employee well-being in the digital age. Nayla Glaise, President of Eurocadres, Dr Ivan Kokalov, Member of the European Economic and Social Committee (tbc) and Isaline Ossieur, Adviser in the Social Affairs department of BusinessEurope, will present solutions and actions taken to reinforce well-being of employees and discuss how to disseminate such good practices in the field. 

Join the debate and support the crucial necessity to promote mental health as a fundamental human concern which must remain at the forefront of the European Institutions’ agenda in the forthcoming years.
