Summary
Globalization has expanded the value and supply chains and shifted trade patterns and dynamics. Research should first conceptualise the actual global and sectoral trade patterns, value chains, supply chains and production networks including the labour market, income inequalities, decent work and social cohesion in urban and rural areas, in light of the EU’s long-term policy priorities of social resilience and competitive sustainability.
Detailed Call Description
Research should develop a comparative assessment with the main strategic partners and provide innovative, forward-looking policy scenarios with recommendations for future global value chains, trade patterns and trade intensities, which will ensure security of strategic supplies, promote a high level of employment and tackle income inequalities in the EU, while safeguarding job quality and social and territorial cohesion. They should be coherent with the EU long-term policy priorities of social and economic resilience, competitive sustainability and the twin transition (digital and green).
The research will deploy multi-disciplinary methodologies and target multi-dimensional aspects, developing cross-sectoral and forward-looking responses, involving external stakeholders and experts, including European social partners, regional and national authorities and international trade, labour market and social policy experts.
