Our yearly Public Affairs event took place on the 6th of December in Brussels, Belgium. This year we organised it together with EASPD with whom EPR did a joint research work under the topic of social economy and employment of people with disabilities. The day was focused around the topic of social enterprises and within the framework of this research study EPR is commissioning together with other European organisations and service providers, the event introduced the state of the research, invited related speakers and presented innovative and successful practices related to social enterprises focusing on the employment of people with disabilities.
