Meiteashonraí an fhoilseacháin
In 2015, the European Parliament called on the European Commission and the European Union Member States “to introduce a Child Guarantee so that every child in poverty can have access to free healthcare, free education, free childcare, decent housing and adequate nutrition, as part of a European integrated plan to combat child poverty”. Following the subsequent request by the Parliament to explore the potential scope of a Child Guarantee (CG) for children in vulnerable situations, the Commission has commissioned a three-phase Preparatory Action with a view to analysing the design, feasibility, governance and implementation of such a scheme in the EU Member States: 1. A first Feasibility Study for a Child Guarantee (FSCG1) was carried out by a consortium consisting of Applica and the Luxembourg Institute of Socio-Economic Research (LISER), in close collaboration with Eurochild and Save the Children, and with the support of thematic experts, national experts and an independent study editor. It assessed the feasibility, efficiency and overall benefits of an EU CG Scheme and made concrete suggestions for improving policies and programmes at EU and (sub-)national levels. It focused on access by four groups of children to the five social rights identified by the European Parliament: children with disabilities, children residing in institutions, children with a migrant background (incl. refugee children), and children living in precarious family situations. The FSCG2 Final Report is available at https://ec.europa.eu/social/BlobServlet?docId=22869&langId=en 2. A second Feasibility Study for a Child Guarantee (FSCG2), whose results are presented in the present report, was carried out by a consortium consisting of Applica and the Luxembourg Institute of Socio-Economic Research (LISER), in close collaboration with PPMI, Eurochild and Save the Children, and with the support of thematic experts, national experts and an independent study editor. It is a detailed study that explores what could be some of the costs and benefits for the competent authorities to guarantee in practice that all children at risk of poverty in the EU have access to the five social rights under scrutiny. This study, which is complementary to the first phase, provides a thorough economic analysis of the design, feasibility, governance and implementation options of a CG in all EU Member States. 3. The third phase of the Preparatory Action is being carried out by UNICEF. It is testing the CG through a series of pilot projects implemented by UNICEF in Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece and Italy as well as a series of national policy and programmatic deep dives and development of National Child Poverty and Social Exclusion Action Plans in Bulgaria, Croatia, Germany, Greece, Italy, Lithuania and Spain. It started in the summer of 2020 and will last for two years.
