2024 EISS Conference in Maastricht (NL): “Contemporary Challenges
for the Fundamental Right to Social
Security”
After the edition of 2023, the European Institute of Social Security will host its annual conference in collaboration with Maastricht University in Maastricht, the Netherlands. The conference will take place from 26-27 September on the topic of contemporary challenges for the fundamental right to social security.
Our gratitude goes to the Faculty of Law of Maastricht University for their support in putting together the conference.
Background
Modern welfare states face many challenges: the cost of living crisis exposes the inadequacy of existing levels of protection; large scale administrative scandals raise questions as to the ability of the system to fundamentally address the human dimension; and increased immigration threatens the inclusiveness of social security systems. Such pressures require a strong normative response. But is the existing corpus of social rights normatively solid enough and, if not, how should it be altered to cope with new societal challenges? This is the central question that will be debated in the conference.
