Claudette Abela Baldacchino, Deputy Mayor Qrendi Local Council (Malta), was invited as a speaker at the “Social Europe for everyone” conference, organised on 30 July within the framework of the 9th ECOSY Summer Camp. This major 7-day political event, bringing together young Socialists and Social Democrats from all over Europe, broadly echoed the consultation themes for the elaboration of the PES manifesto for the 2009 European elections.
Claudette Abela Baldacchino, PES Group Coordinator for the gender dimension of the PES Manifesto and the Group's representative within PES Women, is herself one of the youngest members of the CoR. Addressing ECOSY members, she stressed that 'it is of the utmost importance to ensure the availability, sustainability and functioning of social policy that encourages and enables young people to achieve their full potential and to live autonomous lives'.
She intervened alongside Zita Gurmai MEP and President of PES Women, Benoît Hamon MEP, Mia De Vits MEP, Dirk Jarre, Social Platform Vice-President, and Philip Cordery PES Secretary General.
